  1. Rublev Colours Lead White | Lead White Artist Oils Online Rublevcolours lead white is an opaque white that is smooth and long and formulated to maintain the unique characteristics of each pigment in oil. We use genuine natural and historical pigments like those used by the old masters. Get lead white artist oils online from Natural Pigments.

  2. Our lead white is made with pale linseed oiland basic lead carbonate (made according to modern processes) without stabilizers (e.g. stearates, waxes, etc.) or fillers to alter the characteristics of the pigment. As a result, you get higher pigment volume concentration (PVC) than other brands of lead white (flake white)—as high as 50%. This means most brands of flake white do not weigh nearly as much as RublevColours 50 ml tube. Yet, RublevColours Lead White is not overly stiff and mixes well with all other oil colors.

  3. Lead white is the most common white found on the old masters' palette. Lead pigments have been made artificially since Antiquity, although health concern of lead poisoning has greatly diminished its role in paint today.

  4. RublevColours Lead White Artists Oil is an opaque white that is smooth and brushes long. The consistency straight out of the tube is creamy, slightly ropey yet retains its shape as you manipulate it while being soft yet sculptural. Our lead white is made with pale linseed oil and basic lead carbonate (made according to modern processes) without stearates (a pigment stabilizer), other pigments or fillers to alter the characteristics of the pigment. As a result you get a higher pigment volume concentration (PVC) than other brands of lead white (flake white); greater than 50%.

  5. Venetian White—Transparency for Better Tints RublevColours Venetian White Artists Oil is is a semi-opaque white ground in a blend of pale linseed and walnut oil that provides a stiff white excellent for mixing with colors. According to Salter’s edition of George Field’s Chromatography (1869), Venetian white was a commercial name in the 19th century for a white pigment mixture composed of equal parts of lead white (basic lead carbonate) and ‘heavy spar’ (that is, the barium sulfate mineral barite or baryte). The names Venice white and Venice ceruse were also used for this mixture as well as for pure lead white. We’ve replicated this color for artists today without the fillers and stearates of modern whites. The white mineral barite has a lower refractive index than lead white, making it less opaque and hence well suited for mixing with other colors. Use it to make pale tints of colors without overpowering them or as a foundation for other colors.
