Manufacturer Description
Mayan Dark Blue is darker and warmer than Mayan Blue Genuine. Mix it with Mayan Orange to make a fantastic array of subtle grays and violets for colorful, complex shadows. Rich, bold colors adorned the murals and sculpture of the Mayan people. Even when exposed to centuries of severe heat and humidity, these colors have hardly faded over a thousand years. Now, using methods derived from ancient Mayan chemistry, these unique, metal-free pigments have been recreated using an eco-friendly process. Their versatility, durability and exquisite hues make them colors you’ll reach for again and again.
