This limited edition palette, curated by artist Canan Esen, features special granulating earth, mineral and plant based pigments. These natural pigments were chosen for their unique atmospheric and organic textures. Of particular note is Meteorite Brown which is made a type of stone called a chondrite, an actual shooting star.
A. Gallo watercolours are crafted according to a traditional recipe of raw pigments, gum arabic, local honey, rosemary essential oil, and a wetting agent. This artisanal process creates a highly pigmented and luminous paint that activates beautifully when wet.
This collection includes twelve individually wrapped half pans in a convenient metal travel tin with two mixing surfaces, a colour chart printed on Arches watercolour paper, and a synthetic squirrel hair pocket brush from series 1327 brush, a size 6 round tip, made by Tintoretto. Packaged with genuine marbled paper made in a Florentine artisan workshop.
