MIneral Watercolor Palette - 12 colors

Twelve mineral watercolors sourced from the earth — ochres, umbers, iron oxides, and natural greens that have been used by artists for centuries. Soft, harmonious, and perfect for painting nature, landscapes, and botanicals with an organic, timeless quality that synthetic pigments simply can't replicate.

Handcrafted in Bulgaria from natural mineral pigments, pure gum arabic, organic honey, and clove essential oil. No fillers, no synthetic brighteners. Mulled by hand on a glass slab and poured multiple times — each pan dries for at least three weeks.

A note on mineral pigments: these colors are naturally muted and low in tint strength — especially Green Earth. That's not a flaw, it's the nature of earth pigments. They blend effortlessly and create color harmony almost automatically. If you're used to vivid synthetic colors, expect something quieter and more nuanced.

Includes a blank 300g/m² 100% cotton cold-press card to swatch your palette.

To use: add a few drops of water and wait 3–4 minutes to activate. Let pans dry before closing the tin. Minor surface cracks or bubbles are natural in a handmade product and don't affect performance.
