Experimenting is adictive, and I am a lost case.... if you use the search engine on Kremer Pigmente's site with the word "violin"
it will turn out with 219 matches... Ok, it includes glue, books, etc. but still there are many many pigments they reccomend for violin varnishes starting with their "Violin Varnish Assortment" (in which I am not interested, but may be a good indication of the most suited single pigments for violin varnishes): 14300 Violin-Varnish Assortment 27 x 25 ml glasses, in a wooden case Contents 17050 - Natural Sienna, Monte Amiata 23350 - Indian Yellow imitation 23490 - Purple-Red 23493 - Gubbio Red 23500 - Paliogen® Maroon 23582 - CINQUASIA® Gold, brown-gold 23585 - CINQUASIA® Gold, red-gold 23610 - Alizarine Crimson dark 24000 - Paliotol® Yellow-Orange 37000 - Dragon's Blood, powder 37050 - Gamboge 37202 - Madder Lake 37392 - Stil de Grain 40430 - Burnt Sienna no. 3 41000 - Van Dyck Brown 42100 - Carmine Naccarat 43500 - Cobalt Yellow 43880 - Intensive Yellow 52200 - Translucent Yellow, PY 42.77492 52300 - Translucent Orange 52350 - Translucent Orange-Red 52400 - Translucent Red medium 60050 - Mastic 60100 - Sandarac 60450 - Shellac Bleached Very Light 60490 - Seed Lac 73054 - Linseed Oil, cold-pressed Some of them are made of iron oxides (as the translucent orange, red and yellow, in linseed oil (no mulling, thanks God!), concentrated, which may be insteresting). Some of them are quite enigmatic, like these ones: IWA-Enogu pigments (cadmium glass powder) Pearl Luster Chroma Red (Mica laminated with titanium dioxide, tin oxide and silicium dioxide). I know, no free lunch, no bean spilling, but what is your experience with some of them? -------------------- |

I know, no free lunch, no bean spilling, but what is your experience with some of them? Me too Luis. I love messing with this stuff. I've got a small cabinet full of Kremer pigments, oils, resins, and just general stuff. Sometimes things don't turn out the way planed, but then again sometimes they do. Later, Berl |

They are made from minerals such as lapis lazuli, azurite, malachite, cinnabar, and orpiment. Enogu means paint, and Iwa means rock. -------------------- ?

No, I haven't tried them. I can't see they'll be much different from Western counterpart.
In Japanese painting, these pigments are typically mixed with thin animal glue to make paints, and that's not an unique method, either. -------------------- ?
