{"product_id":"manganese-violet-pigment","title":"Manganese Violet Pigment","description":"\u003cp\u003eManganese Violet (PV16) is a handmade single pigment of manganese ammonium pyrophosphate. It produces a clean, cool, slightly reddish violet with a soft, velvety masstone and gentle tints. It has moderate tinting strength and a semi-transparent character, giving lively, controllable violets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn use, Manganese Violet gives refined violets for florals, shadows, drapery and atmospheric passages. It mixes cleanly with blues for cool violets and with white for delicate lilac tints, and it can neutralize yellows and greens. It is lightfast but sensitive to alkalis, so it should not be used in fresco or with lime.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eHistory\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eManganese Violet was first made in 1868 by E. Leykauf in Nuremberg, Germany, and was known for a time as Nuremberg Violet. It became commercially important in the 1890s and gave painters a lightfast, inexpensive violet at a time when cobalt violet was costly and toxic. It remains a standard violet in artist paints today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePigment Information\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePigment Type: Synthetic (Inorganic) manganese ammonium pyrophosphate\u003cbr\u003eSource: Manganese ammonium pyrophosphate (NH₄MnP₂O₇)\u003cbr\u003eOrigin: U.S.A.\u003cbr\u003eSuitable Mediums: Watercolor, Oil, Tempera, Acrylic, Encaustic, Casein\u003cbr\u003eLightfastness: Excellent\u003cbr\u003eOpacity: Semi-transparent\u003cbr\u003eOther Names: Nuremberg Violet, Mineral Violet, Permanent Violet, Manganese Purple\u003cbr\u003eColor Index Code: PV16\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHealth and Safety\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor art use only.
