ABOUT THIS COLOUR
Garnet Lake is a rich wine-red with elegant violet undertones, formulated from Pigment Violet 19 (PV19) and Pigment Violet 23 (PV23). Deep, refined, and beautifully transparent, it offers a sophisticated alternative to traditional crimson shades while adding remarkable depth to both washes and layered paintings.
Its luxurious character is ideal for painting roses, peonies, berries, autumn leaves, rich textiles, dramatic skies, and atmospheric shadows. When diluted, Garnet Lake reveals delicate rosy-violet tints, while full-strength applications produce bold jewel-like colour with exceptional richness. Its unique balance of red and violet also makes it an outstanding choice for expressive colour mixing.
PRODUCT FEATURES
• High-Quality Pigment: Made with premium-quality pigments for strong, consistent colour, smooth application, and reliable coverage in every wash.
• The "Full Pan" Guarantee: We fill these 2.5ml pans in multiple layers. Because watercolour shrinks as it dries, we repeat the process so you get a full, generously filled pan rather than a half-empty one.
• Ready to Paint: You won't be scrubbing at the pan to lift colour. Just hit it with a damp brush and it reactivates instantly, ready for smooth, dependable use every session.
• Jewel-like transparency: Its transparent nature allows light to travel through successive layers, creating glowing glazes and rich tonal transitions without losing brilliance.
• Great for Mixing: Blends effortlessly throughout the Thoovi range to produce elegant violets, muted burgundies, atmospheric neutrals, and expressive shadow tones.
• Travel-Friendly: It's a standard half-pan size, so it drops right into almost any portable palette - ideal for travel, plein air work, or urban sketching.
• Safe & Lasting: Non-toxic and rated very good for lightfastness, so this colour is safe to use and holds its tone well over time when displayed and stored correctly.
WHY CHOOSE INDIVIDUAL HALF PANS?

Replace frequently used colours without purchasing a complete set, experiment with new pigments one at a time, or build a lightweight travel palette tailored to your painting style.
