Cobalt Violet Dark (series6)

PV14. Fast Drying. Semi-Opaque. Excellent Lightfastness. Average Oil Content.

This shade of Cobalt Phosphate was only obtainable when the natural ore was superseded by more refined processes of manufacture. It has a heavier, richer appearance than its lighter counterpart, but its comparatively weak tint power means that it will not unduly push mixes towards a deeper bluish result. Interesting effects when glazed over with yellow lake colours.
