Renaissance Watercolor 12 Palette

Description

Rediscover the palette of the Old Masters with our Renaissance Palette, a curated selection of 12 half pans of handmade watercolor made with pigments used in 15th to 17th century Europe. Housed in a classic black metal tin, this set draws directly from the earthy, luminous colors found in frescoes, oil sketches, illuminated manuscripts, and tempera panels.

Each pan is handcrafted in small batches using traditional materials, from natural earths and mineral pigments to historical lakes and cuttlefish sepia, bound with pure local honey and gum arabic, with a small amount of food grade sodium benzoate preservative. This collection channels the layered subtlety and vibrancy that defined Renaissance art, with colors prized for their versatility and their ability to render light and form with grace and depth. Lightfastness varies by pigment, so see each color's own listing for details.
