In the Jubilee Year 2017, Schmincke enlarges and optimizes - after some years
of research by the Schmincke lab - the HORADAM® watercolours to the
premium 140 assortment. The capabilities of newest pigments, the inclusion of
customer wishes and market analysis, as well as changes in the raw material
market gave us the impulse to perfect the assortment and to extend the colour
range.
35 new colours, among these 32 one-pigment-tones, fill the harmonic colour
spectrum of the Horadam® premium assortment. The increased use of highly
lightfast pigments, such as Quinacridone and Perylene, offers completely new
possibilities for the artist. 10 new red colours, 3 new one-pigment violet
colours, 4 new black tones and 8 new brown colours, partly transparent like
e.g. Transparent Ochre or Transparent Umber, have been added to the premium
assortment. The ultramarine range has been enlarged with the famous colour
French Ultramarine.
100 well-tried and traditional colours as well as Oxgall – the wetting agent -
already fit to the highest quality standards, so that there was no need for a
change. 4 colours (with remaining shades) have been optimized using the
newest and best raw materials. 6 colours are omitted due to raw materials
which arenʼt available anymore.
Unique pigments - new colours - completed coloristic
Quinacridones: These highly lightfast pigments are used to complete the
quinacridone range from 6 to 9 tones, visible in the name, e.g. Quinacridone
red light.
Perylenes: Using completely new, highly lightfast perylene pigments this range
is enlarged; 3 new colours (Perylene green, Perylene red
deep, Perylene violet).
Ultramarine: This range gets with the French Ultramarine a much asked for
one-pigment colour, a reddish, intense and granulating
blue, coloristically situated between the three already existing ultramarines.
Transparent iron oxides: The 3 new transparent colours Transparent ?Ochre,
Transparent Sienna as well as Transparent Umber complete the spectrum of
opaque brown colours. These transparent colours are rare due to the very hard
and difficult to process consistency with these pigments.?
Brilliant tones: The existing brilliant colours have been optimized due to
changing on the raw material market. The new pigments have nearly the same
coloristic, but a better quality. The new brilliant tone Brilliant Opera Rose,
especially for painting flowers, has been added.? All brilliant colours now
contain a mixture of fluorescent and highly lightfast pigments. Due to the
influence of light on the fluorescent components of the colours, the brilliant
tones do not have an evaluation of lightfastness.
Black/Grey: 3 new colours – Graphite Grey, Hematite Black and Mars Black
enlarge the spectrum.
Potters Pink: This worldwide well-known colour, containing the special
pigment PR 233, has been added to the assortment, too.
