Schmincke Horadam Watercolor Color Card, 140 Color Chart

Horadam Watercolors Outperform All The Rest!

Schmincke has been producing its Horadam line of watercolors since 1881. Today the Horadam line includes 140 glorious colors, 112 of those colors have the highest lightfastness ratings of 4 or 5 stars. 95 of the colors are formed with a single pigment for perfect mixing effects. Each color has its own independently optimized recipe made of the finest pigments, Ox gall, and traditional binders.

Schmincke uses only Kordofan Gum Arabic from the southern Sahara a natural resin binder. Horadam colors can be raised from a dried palette without developing globules. Colors that have dried on the palette can be awakened with a wet brush and reused an infinite number of times.

Schmincke limits use of ONETZ (ox gall) as a dispersant. This helps the artist maintain full control of color, even on softer papers.

The handmade card contains the full line of HORADAM® watercolors.

The color chart allows you to see the potential of each color without the added cost. You can use the color chart as a decision guide when choosing and buying colors.
