This potassium or sodium-substituted potassium cobalt nitrite compound has been a favorite among watercolorists and oil painters alike, offering a unique blend of transparency, lightfastness, and tinting strength.

With a rich history dating back to 1831, Cobalt Yellow has evolved over the years, with its discovery attributed to N.W. Fischer and later popularized by artists like Aaron Penly and Arthur Mühlberg. Today, this pigment is prized for its intense yellow hue, which darkens and fades beautifully in watercolors, while maintaining its transparency and permanence in oil paints.

As a transparent, lightly staining pigment, Cobalt Yellow is perfect for creating delicate, layered washes and subtle color transitions. Its high tinting strength allows artists to achieve rich, vibrant colors with minimal application, making it an ideal choice for capturing the subtleties of natural light and color.

What sets our Cobalt Yellow apart is its exceptional lightfastness, earning it a rating of II in acrylic, oil, and watercolor applications. This ensures that your artwork will remain vibrant and unchanged for generations to come. Additionally, our pigment is carefully crafted to have a specific gravity of 2.5, refractive index of 1.5, and oil absorption of 55 grams of linseed oil per 100 grams of pigment, making it a joy to work with.
