  • Maximum color intensity

  • Exceptional lightfastness and durability
  • Made in the USA

QoR Modern Watercolors by Golden are a contemporary range designed to deliver unmatched brilliance and depth. Formulated with an exclusive Aquazol binder, these colors maintain vivid, luminous color even after drying and offer a greater pigment load than traditional watercolors. With 95+ lightfast colors, QoR combines the transparency, flow, and layering potential watercolorists love with the intensity and durability of acrylic or oil.

Beyond enhancing color brilliance, the Aquazol binder facilitates smooth transitions and provides excellent resistance to cracking and flaking, offering more flexibility on paper. Each color uses pure, high-quality pigments selected for their exceptional lightfastness, and the entire range (except Ivory Black 505) is vegan, using a synthetic substitute for ox gall.

Made in the USA, QoR is perfect for artists seeking bold color, flexibility, and reliable performance in every brushstroke.

Pyrrole Rubine

Pigment code
PR264
Type
organic, aminoanthroquinone
Chemical name
1,4-diketo-3,6-di(4'-tertiary butyl phenyl)-2,5-dihydro pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole
Properties
This bluish red transparent pigment has high tinting strength. Diketo pyrrolo pyrrole pigments are noteworthy for their light stability, excellent weatherability, and outstanding heat stability.
Permanence
Pyrrole Rubine has excellent permanence and lightfastness for an organic pigment in its color range.
Toxicity
Pyrrole pigments are considered to be non-toxic.
History
The Pyrrole group of synthetic organic pigments was developed in the 1980s. Pyrrole Rubine was first manufactured by Ciba Specialty Chemicals under the trade name Irgazine Ruby. Although not a perfect match for alizarin crimson, Pyrrole Rubine is one of several new pigments that has helped to close a traditional gap in the gamut of artist pigments, the lack of lightfast and transparent colors in the red/blue and red/violet parts of the spectrum.
