Kuretake GANSAI TAMBI 48 Colors Watercolor Paint Set for Artists and Crafters

Gansai Tambi are traditional Japanese watercolors available in 48 colors that are based on hues found in nature, resulting in vibrant yet not overly saturated pigments. Due to their richness and opaqueness, these paints are semi-transparent and can be used similarly to gouache when mixed heavily with water.

The Gansai Tambi pans are carefully filled with smooth, non-granulated paint that dries with a slight shiny finish, providing a flexible range of techniques. The paints do not leave hard edges when dry, making flat-washes easy to achieve, and they can be readily layered with proper application.

Notably, the Gansai Tambi pans are much larger than typical watercolor pans, allowing the use of both small and large brushes with ease, enhancing brush dexterity. Each set includes a protective sheet that can double as a palette mixer, as well as a color chart, enabling users to swatch the colors and distinguish between them quickly.

Packaged in a simple cardboard box with an elegant green washi overlay, the Gansai Tambi watercolors are beautifully presented, making them an ideal gift. The water-based pigments are ACMI-certified, ensuring their safety and quality.

In summary, Gansai Tambi are Eastern Watercolors that offer a unique and versatile painting experience. Their vibrant, nature-inspired colors, flexible techniques, and thoughtful packaging make them a compelling choice for artists and enthusiasts alike.
