More Details
Our handmade Violet Mid Shade watercolour paint comes from our unique colour range, combining the depth of Cobalt Blue with the intensity of Quinacridone Scarlet to create a new, vibrant violet. The result is a rich, balanced purple with remarkable tonal flexibility; from dark, velvety shadows to soft lilac highlights.
For cooler, more muted purples, mix Violet Mid Shade with Cobalt Turquoise. Its versatility makes it ideal for florals, skies, still life, and layered washes that require subtle tonal variation.
Each pan reflects Ferrous & Bone’s dedication to craft: handmade, slow production, and pigments chosen for their stability and quality.
