L'Aquarelle Sennelier are luminous, brilliant and intense. Artists love them because of their radiance and their spontaneity.

L'Aquarelle Sennelier has been produced in the same way for more than a century using the best pigments, top quality Kordofan Gum Arabic as a bonding agent and honey. This mix of natural ingredients produces colours which have a smooth, bright texture and offer lively, colourful shades. Always striving for excellence, Sennelier has reworked its aquarell formula with increasing the amount of Honey in the paint to reinforce the longevity of the colours, their radiance and luminosity. The Gum Arabic and honey combination offers incomparable quality of application. Honey is not used only as a preservative but as an additive giving incomparable brilliance and smoothness to the paint. Colours merge together perfectly, in turn bringing out the full beauty of the colours.
