Aquarelle Alchemy — Watercolor Mediums Set

Inspired by the watercolor formulations of the 19th century, Aquarelle Alchemy is a collection of watercolor mediums crafted for artists who love the nuanced, historical approach to transparent, glowing colors. These mediums allow luminous washes, subtle lifting, and controlled pigment flow. Each medium offers a glimpse into the age-old methods used by master watercolorists of the Golden Age of watercolors. Aquarelle Alchemy is a set of watercolor mediums housed in artisanal glassware and a wooden stand. The set includes the following watercolor mediums:

Crystal Water Varnish is a medium based on 19th-century recipes that increase the gloss and brilliance of watercolor paintings.

Rublev Colours Watercolor Medium can be used to make watercolors with powdered pigments or pigment dispersions, dilute watercolor paint, and add gloss to watercolor paintings.

Rublev Colours Watercolor Megilp is a historical watercolor medium used in the 19th and early 20th centuries by British and American watercolorists to thicken watercolor and gouache paint, allowing the laying in of multiple glazes and making colors matte.

Lac Water Varnish is a natural resin varnish based on a recipe used by 19th-century watercolorists. It can be used as a fixative on watercolor and tempera paint to isolate painting layers in glazing techniques and enhance color saturation. It can also reduce the absorbency of traditional gesso and chalk grounds.
