Explore the Timeless Elegance of Alizarin Crimson Handmade Watercolor Paint

Delve into the rich, historical beauty of Alizarin Crimson, a stunning, deep red watercolor derived from the roots of the Rubia tinctorum plant. The alizarin pigment, traditionally used in madder lakes, gives this color its signature intensity, ranging from carmine to a cool, bluish red. Crafted with natural ingredients and high-quality pigments, this paint is mulled to a smooth, rich texture that ensures a premium painting experience.

Packaged in durable metal pans, Alizarin Crimson delivers a transparent, versatile wash with medium tinting strength, making it ideal for layering, glazing, or adding depth to your work. While its lightfastness is low, this vibrant color is perfect for projects where temporary brilliance is desired.
