Nakagawa Gofun 6 colour Gansai Japanese Watercolour Set (3 options)

A set of traditional Japanese watercolours (Gansai) that are elegant, easily soluble in water, and transparent.

Gansai use a much higher pigment to binder ratio than Western watercolours, which is why their colours are more saturated. A little paint goes a long way. 

These watercolours come with large pans compared to traditional Western watercolour pans. Japanese watercolour brushes are larger and need the extra space.
