MUSSINI are the finest artists' resin-oil-colours from SCHMINCKE, are unique artists' colours produced by means of a particularly sophisticated manufacturing process to meet the very highest requirements. It goes without saying that they contain only the best traditional artists' PIGMENTS together with several outstanding newly developed artists' pigments, each in the highest possible concentrations and in pure form. This results in artists' colours of the utmost brilliance and purity, which also mix more readily than premixed colour tones based on a limited selection of pigments.
The uniqueness of these finest professional artists' colours stems in particular from the adoption of the old masters' practice of combining selected artists' oil with natural resin.
On the basis of many years of scientific experience in the field of artists' colours, Schmincke continues to use a broad and diverse scope of artists' oils, which it combines with the most suitable natural dammar resin from Palembang, Indonesia. The amount of dammar resin which is added in colloidal solution depends on the oil requirements of the pigment concerned.
The use of different variants of linseed oil purified by means of highly sophisticated processes also predominates in the MUSSINI artists' resin-oil-colours.
