Natural Pigments has created a set of nine oil colors based on earth pigments from the diverse geology of Armenia. The earth colors range from green earths, yellow ochers, orange red, brown red to bluish red and purple. The raw materials for our Armenian earth colors are extracted from various provinces of Armenia (see the map below). Pigments from some of these ancient sites were used on early ceramics and religious iconography from prehistory to Byzantium.

You can purchase each oil color individually or for a limited time the entire set of ten colors (50 ml tubes) for the special price of 20% off the regular price.
