This lovely green is made of earth from the city Nicosia in Cyprus. It's light and transparent, with a slightly gritty texture. When Nicosia is fully saturated it resembles French Pale Green, though more transparent and textured. We've included a side by side image for comparison. All of our watercolors are handmade in our shop using the highest quality earth and synthetic pigments, plus natural watercolor binding medium made from gum arabic (sap from acacia trees), honey, glycerine, distilled water, and a dash of clove oil for freshness! Half Pans contain around 2ml of paint and are approximately 3/4" x 1/2" x 3/8" deep. Color Index number as provided by vendor: PG 23.77009. All of our watercolors conform to ASTM D-4236. Show more
