Colours in Arts Companion 1749
Paint box with selfmade whole colour pans of watercolour paints mentioned in Arts Companion, 1749.  The majority of the colour pans is made from genuine classic pigments. Some colour pans are highly toxic.
The following colours are replacements:  Masticot Yellow (replaced by classic realgar), Brown Red (replaced by red ochre) and Gall Stone. The last colour pan is replaced by two half pans of French Ochre or "Pierre de Fiel" made by Sennelier. Genuine  galstones are nowadays (anno January 2015) not obtainable for a reasonable price. Bladder Green is replaced by pale green/ sap green imit..  Flake White is made of oyster shell white. A very good quality Oyster white is Gofun Shirayuki, Pearl White, made of Japanese oyster shells (Kremer Pigmente). Two extra colour pans - in the lower right part of the tray - are:  sap green dark (imit.) and yellow ochre. German Ashes is made from pulverized real lapis lazuli stones after glow and leach. Sea green is made from a very finely pulverized piece of Malachite stone. The colour pan of Black lead is made from a pulverized graphite rod (HB).
