Genuine Lapis Lazuli - 'Mantegna' - 40ml

£80.00

The classic Lapis hue, straight out of a Renaissance painting.

In masstone, a deep blue, not quite as rich as the Tiziano shade, just off the middle of the blue spectrum leaning slightly green.

In tints with white, it stands up very well and provides a wide range of soft, muted, blues, the subtlety of which couldn't be achieved with any other pigment.

It seems slightly more transparent than the other varieties and also has the slight grittiness in feel like the others, the pigment size is deliberately left slightly larger in order to maximize the chroma.

Available in 20ml size here

Supreme paints indeed!

Top quality service, communication, and the products themselves make this a highly reliable and trustworthy company to work with. Highly recommended. We have bought two of their three lapis offerings, and this one is a very subtle, gentle granular tint, giving a very classical and classy impact.

Beautiful Lapis paint

A lighter shade lapis, one strongly associated with the light Renaissance blue. This paint is lovely to work in glazes. It adds depth and chroma to the final layers. Highly recommend.

Excellent

Really good Lapis shade & good density in granular content. It’s lovely & used sparingly can be used to great effect. (My favourite lapis is still the Michael Harding but this is also very good)

Truly amazing unique paint

As always the supreme paint company has delivered exactly what was promised. The descibtive text to this paint also fits the bill. 100% best service by James and the makers of that paint.
