Vibrant watercolours

This watercolour box by Kuretake has a vibrant and unique color palette. The pans are bigger than your average watercolour sets. They're very good quality pigments and it's suitable for any artistic endeavour, be it brush calligraphy, scrap booking or card making designs, funky watercolour portraits - the possibilities are endless. Its reasonably priced too. Enjoy and have fun :)Read full review...

Different but amazing

If you're barely starting out And are barely getting into water coloring this set is really easy to use and really forgiving when trying to clean up mistakes the colors blend beautifully and are very creamy and blossom nicely these colors are not like Western water colors the shades are slightly different but just as beautiful this set has a variety of colors but would work best for those whom I trying to paint landscapes and flowers since it does have more greens and blues than anything elseRead full review...

Smooth, highly pigmented, and excellent blend ability!

First of all, I love how the paint pots aren't super tiny like other brands. They are about 2 inches across, leaving enough space for bigger brushes to do larger washes and strokes of colour. There are 3 metallic colours that offer unique sheen and lustre to a painting that you would usually have to buy a separate pallet for. This 36 piece set has a nice variety of colours, and hues that I wouldn't have purchased on my own (the cornflower blue, for example, would be easily made by using a light wash and taking advantage of the white paper underneath), but they offer a great option if you wish to use these colours dry to get a nice saturation of lighter and brighter colours. One last thing: used up a colour? The trays can be purchased individually! Yay!

I would recommend this set for people who are into doing massive paintings and need a good variety of colour to work with.

Great quality

Great quality and vibrant watercolors. Slightly different from European brands as the technique and style used is also different here but they do the work just as well and are a joy to paint with. >Recommented if you're looking for an affordable alternative. Read full review...

Breathtakingly Beautiful

Zig Kuretake watercolors are beyond beautiful - they are vivid, saturated with pigment and very light and transparent at the same time!

The packaging itself reflects the Japanese strive for perfection, taking care of every little detail. A joy to receive, a joy to open and a joy to work with!

These are definitely my favorite watercolors of all time!

Highly Pigmented and Creamy Paint In Big Pans!

This amazing paint has high pigmented colors. There is great range of colors in this set and it has big pans, unlike many other watercolor sets.The paint is creamy and a delight to work with! It can also be easily lifted up if needed with a bit of water, and that's a big plus as well. Kuretake Gansai Tambi Water Color set is perfect for any artist, professional and beginner.Read full review...

Japanese Watercolors

Very deep rich colors. Wonderful color selection. Go on paper very smooth. Very economical for making washes,
very little color needed. I like the set very much, particular the metallic white, that can be used over other color to make them sparkle.Read full review...

Gorgeous Colors and Bang for Your Buck!

These watercolors are beautiful. They seem to be made from very pure pigments. I especially appreciate the pink-red and fuchsia tones that are often lacking in standard pan watercolor sets. The pans are a generous size, bigger than the standard Crayola set you had in school. They are perfect for me as a beginner. Pictured are some lesson exercises and just "playing" with the set. It's simply a joy to use.Read full review...
