## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Creamy dreamy opal colors of happiness.
*by A***R on September 24, 2025*

These are beautiful, they go on like creamy dreamy happiness, they bring any project where you need to add that extra touch of flair to bring it to life.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gorgeous watercolors, I want them all!!
*by L***H on February 24, 2018*

My review is mostly in my pictures that I’ve posted. I’m absolutely in love with these watercolors and probably won’t purchase anything else going forward. They are extremely pigmented, very lush and blend like a dream. I tried to capture the pearlescent and iridescent qualities via the pics but they do not do these paints justice at all!There’s three sets of paint pods you receive in their respective colorways and properties. For my pictures, I did a sampling of each set individually on standard watercolor paper. I labeled each set according to the name and each color by the corresponding number or cooor name if given. Only one set had the names of each color in English but the other two don’t have it translated but there’s a number. You can see, in my pics, how each set blends together. The last pic I posted was actually just the watercolor paper I was using to wipe my brushes off on and it ended up creating a beautiful wash of colors from all three sets.I will definitely be ordering another set of these plus the other watercolors from this brand. I’m very impressed and I’ve worked with a lot of different brands and textures of watercolor paints, acrylics etc. these are now my favorite. They are certainly pricey but they are worth every penny spent. I’m in love! The only negative thing o can say is I know that I’ll be blowing thru these but a little bit does go along way as they are a hard pan watercolor. I used an eye dropper to drop water into the pans as needed. I found that’s the best way to limit the introduction of too much water, simply used my brush to pick up the colors, being careful not to mixed or muddy them up! I blended on a craft sheet or directly on my paper. I want more!!! These are great for brush calligraphy. I even used them in a coloring book and they were amazing! Can’t say enough about them. I’d recommend these for the avid crafter/painter.. I’m not that into watercolor painting yet but I can say these are not child’s play but I’m not sure if they are water color artist grade either. I’m not knowledgeable enough about this medium to know... but I know I love these!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Intriguing colors, interesting to use
*by A***N on August 9, 2025*

These sumi colors are easy and interesting to use. As others have said, they are "moody" colors, dark and broody when applied with little water but transparent and muted when applied with more water. Either way, I find the colors intriguing. I use them for my nature journal/artwork. The colors are particularly suited to landscapes (stormy, clouded, late fall/winter; evening, pre-sunrise morning); insects, birds; reptiles; trees . . . the list goes on. I love the way these colors can be layered with watercolors and drawing inks. The pans are one inch wide by just shy of two inches long and are filled about 1/4 inch--lots of color and great quality for the price. I will buy again.
