This listing is for a 48 count Half-Pan Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Artists’ Watercolor metal box set. This set is guaranteed to be 100% authentic, new, unused. It comes to you with all its original papers but without its original factory packaging (a cardboard box), It was a display item and therefore may show some light aesthetic wear from being on a display shelf ie: light sctatches, retail sticker residue, some creasing of the color swatch card, etc. None of which affect the function of the item, and thus the discount in price from what I normally sell this set for. All photos above are of the actual item for sale. Schmincke has been developing and manufacturing its Horadam line of watercolors since 1881, and the company is now owned by the fourth generation of the original family. Schmincke has a reputation for using only the highest-quality natural gums, water-soluble resins, and pigments. Each aquarell set comes with a beautiful tin case, making these paints easy to work with in the studio or take on the go. Please note that with these sets the metal of the edge of the tin and the edge of where the pans sit are not rolled and there may be some metal and enamel shavings/particles where the tin was cut during manufacturing. Obviously, this is easily remedied by simply wiping or blowing the shavings away. As for the raw edges, I have researched it online and many people say that they have lightly sanded the edges themselves so that they will not be sharp. Also note that the appearance of the metal flaps that hold the pans in place may vary, this is normal. On my own personal set, I prefer to use a double sided adhesive to hold the pans in place, in online reviews some people mention that they prefer to use rubber cement. The raw edged metal and associated particles, and the inconsistent design of the rolled metal flaps that hold the pans in place are normal to these sets and not to be considered a defect, the same with slight inconsistencies/indents in the surface of the metal. It’s just how these sets are manufactured. Half Pan Set of 48 Colors. Contains half pans in 48 colors, including Lemon Yellow, Cadmium Yellow Light, Cadmium Red Light, Permanent Carmine, Ultramarine Finest, Prussian Blue, Phthalo Green, Permanent Green Olive, Yellow Ochre, English Venetian Red, Sepia Brown, Ivory Black, Chrome Orange, Cobalt Green Dark, Naples Yellow, Burnt Sienna, Manganese Violet, Cerulean Blue Tone, Chrome Yellow Deep, Deep Red, Magenta, Indigo, Helio Turquoise, May Green, Translucent Yellow, Translucent Orange, Scarlet Red, Ultramarine Violet, Delft Blue, Mountain Blue, Prussian Green, Olive Green Yellowish, Brilliant Yellow Dark, Madder Brown, Indian Red, Burnt Umber, Titanium Opaque White, Permanent Chinese White, Indian Yellow, Naples Yellow Reddish, Madder Red Dark, Phthalo Blue, Cobalt Turquoise, Neutral Tint, Payne’s Gray Bluish, Gold, and Silver.
