Williamsburg Handmade Safflower Oil Colors are a unique collection of traditional whites and delicate transparent earth pigments, blues, and violets ground in expeller-pressed, refined safflower oil. Individually milled to bring out the best qualities of each pigment, these handmade oil colors offer the exceptional craftsmanship you expect from Williamsburg while addressing concerns about luminosity and yellowing associated with linseed oil.

Ideal for white passages and delicate glazing techniques, each color in the collection was painstakingly developed to offer long-lasting luminosity and clarity with minimal yellowing or color shift over time. Please note that these colors take longer to dry and are not recommended for underpainting or foundational layers.

It is generally the bluest of the violet pigments, although there can be significant differences in color across brands. It is not suitable for fresco work and does not mix well with yellows. Ultramarine Violet is a variant of Ultramarine Blue, and their pigment properties are identical.
