Manufacturer Description

From Daniel Smith:
Perylene Red is medium staining and semi-tranparent. It creates vivid, dark washes with a clean brilliant red-orange. This sedimentary pigment offers an additional health plus, as it is made from a metal-free red. Clean modern pigments such as this will put accidental mud-making in the past.
