Titanium White Rutile

Description
Titanium White is our exquisitely hand-crafted watercolor paint made with an extremely concentrated and high quality single source pigment mixed only with pure honey and ground extra coarse for extreme granulation. Every pan is meticulously hand mulled, hand packed, filled, and labeled — ensuring maximum pigment concentration without any binders, fillers, or extenders. Our unique formula uses only one pigment and pure local honey, delivering a maximally concentrated watercolor paint.

Titanium White is the brightest, most opaque white pigment available to watercolorists, made from pure titanium dioxide (TiO₂). It offers strong covering power, cool undertones, and exceptional permanence—making it a foundational color in any palette. Whether used to lift highlights, create pastel tones, or add structure to layered compositions, Titanium White is a reliable workhorse with smooth handling and excellent lightfastness.

Though traditionally used more sparingly in transparent watercolor, Titanium White is invaluable for mixed media, gouache-style effects, botanical detail, or as a softening agent for intense colors. Its high opacity and neutral temperature make it ideal for clean tints, highlights, and layered correction work.
