Nickel Barium Titanium Primrose Priderite

PY157

Alternate Names

Daipyroxide Yellow

Priderite Yellow

Pigment Description

This is a rare pigment that is mostly discontinued. We loved it in Schmincke Mussini's Yellowish Green Ural (pre-2010 formulation). We were sad to see this fascinating pale yellow green go. It does have a toxicity rating of B, so handle with appropriate care.
