Lukas 1862 Watercolours are an excellent quality range of watercolours made with a high concentration of finely ground pigments bound with pure gum arabic. The intense colours have excellent transparency and lightfastness.
The watercolours are made with triple-milled pigments, gum arabic, as well as carefully selected dextrins and glucose derivatives. The colours have excellent flow properties, and are easy to lift because of their moist consistency.
