Holbein Artists' Gouache Primary Set 5 x 5ml

The Holbein Artists’ Gouache Primary Set 5 x 5ml is a professional-quality paint set designed for artists who value rich colour, smooth application and precise control. Featuring five essential primary colours, in small 5ml tubes - this set is ideal for colour mixing, illustration, design work and fine art.

Made with high-quality pigments, Holbein Artists’ Gouache delivers strong, opaque colour with a smooth, even finish. The paint spreads easily across the surface, allowing for flat, consistent coverage as well as detailed work and layering techniques.

Unlike acrylic gouache, this traditional gouache is water-soluble even after drying, allowing colours to be reworked and reactivated with water. It dries to a velvety matte finish with minimal brush marks, making it a popular choice for illustrators and designers who require clean, solid areas of colour.

Holbein’s formula is known for its high pigment load and lack of opaquing agents, resulting in clean, vibrant colours that remain true and do not muddy when mixed. This makes the set especially valuable for artists learning colour theory or building custom palettes.

Packaged in a compact set of 15ml tubes, the Holbein Artists’ Gouache Primary Set is a reliable and versatile foundation for studio work, illustration projects and creative exploration.
