Genuine Indigo NB1
This watercolor is made with genuine indigo. Organic Indigo is a natural, organic pigment from the leaves of the indigo plant called Indigofera tinctoria.
“Indigo is insoluble in both water and alcohol. Indigo is an organic pigment with a blackish blue, somewhat dull hue. The plants from which indigo can be obtained are found in many parts of the world. The plant that gives it its name, Indigofera tinctoria L., is native to India. As an artist s pigment, indigo has been documented in Roman paintings from the 1st century AD, in early medieval miniatures, and in paintings from all periods of European relay painting. The oldest evidence, however, comes from excavations and has been dated to 3000 BC. Note: The genuine Indian indigo has a typical inherent odor.”

Customer Reviews
I was so happy to try natural indigo. The quality of the paint is wonderful, as always. I love blues and this one is different from all the others I own and beautifully moody in mixes
Tiny has an incredible range of very beautiful granulating and separating colors – They're very wonderful to work with and I can wholeheartedly recommend buying them ♥

I had no idea that genuine indigo has a dark blue/green tinge. Beautiful. Rare pigment. Very nicely made.
