Schmincke : Horadam Watercolour Paint : Retro Colour : 15ml Tube : Cochineal Red : Limited Edition

Schmincke Horadam Cochineal Red has been specially reissued as part of the Schmincke Retro Watercolour Collection. The range features a selection of special edition sets inspired by the original packaging design and colour selections from a 1912 catalogue discovered in the Schmincke archives.

In order to achieve best possible standards of lightfastness, resolubility and stability, Schmincke Horadam Watercolours contain only the finest raw materials.

The paints are bound with Kordofan gum arabic from the southern Sahara. Due to the natural source of the binder, the gum arabic does tend to differ slightly year on year. Schmincke continually test the ingredients and the best of the batch is selected to ensure the highest quality is achieved. This means paint which has dried onto your palette can be easily re-wetted and painted with again. The range features 150+ colours, with 95 single pigment hues for clean mixing.
