About Naphthol Crimson

Naphthol Crimson is a mid blue-red made from a single modern organic pigment developed in the early 20th century. It gives a distinctive, vibrant crimson with a cool, blue lean.

It has excellent lightfastness and withstands prolonged exposure to light without significant fading. Its semi-transparency makes it well suited to layering and rich red glazes.
