These watercolor pans measure 4.79 x 2.83 cm (containing 0.30oz / 9g of paint), which are slightly larger than other full pan sizes, allowing for easier use with larger brushes. Pans are made of plastic and feature the color name/number on the bottom. Individual pans are sold in a plastic sleeve only.
The rich and intense colors of Gansai Tambi are handcrafted with professional-quality pigments. These fine-caliber watercolors are highly blendable, with a creamy-smooth consistency found only in traditional Japan. Their bold colors are lightfast to keep your art vivid over time.
They can be as opaque as gouache when used with little water. To achieve a more transparent effect, dilute the paints with water and blend until the desired consistency and opacity is reached.
Perfect for illustration, calligraphy, brush lettering and much more! You can also add special effects to your artwork on light or dark paper with the shimmering metallic gold, gem, and pearl/opalescent colors!
Also available in "Gofun White", a traditional color in original Japanese painting techniques. Gofun is a soft, transparent shade of white with a slighty warm tone, made from oyster shells that have been ground into a chalk.
Gansai Tambi watercolors are made by Kuretake in Japan.

I really wish the pans were fuller. I’m afraid I’ll run out in the middle of a project. Otherwise, love it.

Gansai Tambi Watercolors - Individual
I purchased the Graphite colors plus the Black and White to add definition to my paintings. The Graphites are so mellow when diluted and dry much lighter on the page than when first applied. Wow, these paints are very concentrated so a little goes a long way! The Graphites all work together well as the graphite works as a base color underneath. The black and white I've used for a bit of highlighting and outlining - again, quite concentrated pigments. I love the palette I've created with these paints.
