The removeable tin palette has 10 compartments for mixing colors, and is easy to clean.

The fine tipped, high quality brush has a wooden handle and is manufactured by German brush-maker Zahn.

The set includes two tones of each basic color:

• 01 carmine red / 12 red violet
• 33 orange / 02 vermilion
• 04 golden yellow / 05 lemon yellow
• 08 blue green / 36 sap green
• 10 ultramarine / 18 prussian blue
• 13 rust / 15 black

Like all Stockmar's colour materials, these Opaque colours have a unique luminosity. This is due to the fact that the concentration of the colour pigments in our Opaque colours is particularly intense. As a result the colours are richer, and remain powerful even when heavily diluted.Stockmar Opaque colours are suitable for various different painting techniques; classic opaque painting (over painting), classic watercolour painting, lazure painting or techniques based on a mixture of approaches.
