ABOUT THIS COLOUR
Prussian Blue is a deep, powerful blue formulated with Pigment Blue 27 (PB27), renowned for its exceptional depth, transparency, and remarkable tinting strength. Rich and slightly green-biased, it creates dramatic darks at full strength while revealing luminous blue washes when diluted, making it one of the most expressive blues in the watercolour palette.
Its versatility makes it indispensable for painting oceans, deep lakes, dramatic skies, evergreen forests, architectural shadows, and atmospheric landscapes. Prussian Blue also excels in colour mixing, producing vibrant greens with yellows and rich neutral greys with warm earth colours, allowing artists to achieve an impressive range of natural tones from a single pigment.
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.
• Powerful transparent colour: Its transparent character allows artists to build rich layers, dramatic shadows, and luminous glazes while preserving the fresh brilliance unique to watercolour.
• Great for Mixing: Blends effortlessly throughout the Thoovi range to create vibrant forest greens, atmospheric greys, deep shadows, and expressive secondary colours with exceptional richness.
• 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 an entire set, experiment with new pigments one shade at a time, or build a compact travel palette tailored to your artistic style.
