Eight natural mineral and earth pigments are included in this set to introduce you to Rublev pigments. The kit includes 4 oz. jars (100 g) each of: Venetian Red, Verona Green Earth, Italian Raw Sienna, Italian Burnt Siena, Italian Raw Umber, Italian Yellow Earth, German Vine Black, Bianco di San Giovani (lime white). These pigments represent important hues from nearly all popular palette colors: green, yellow, red, brown, white and black. The pigments come in an boxed set that is an excellent introduction to making your own paints or as a great gift for the art student.
How Long Do Pigments Last? All pigments except Bianco di San Giovani (lime white) can be ground with distilled water and kept in the same jars under a layer of water indefinitely. Bianco di San Giovani must be ground fresh with water on the day of painting.
