About this item
- [18 Colors] Gansai is traditional Japanese watercolor, utilizing colors that are based off those seen in nature, meaning they are vivid and opaque. Pans are carefully filled with paint that is smooth, not granulated, and dries with a slight shiny finish.
- [Flexible Techniques] Paints do not leave hard edges when dry, making flat-washes easy to accomplish, and are easy to layer with proper technique.
- [Brush Dexterity] Gansai Tambi Pans are much larger than typical watercolor pans, giving you the ability to use both small or large brushes quite easily.
- [Palette and Color chart included] Within each Gansai Tambi set is a protective sheet that not only keeps your pans from shifting but can be used as a palette mixer. Each box also includes a color chart so you can swatch the colors yourself and distinguish between them quickly.
- [Beautiful Packaging, Ideal for Gift-giving] Water-based pigment is ACMI-certified, and packaged in a simple cardboard box with elegant green washi overlay. Perfect for gifts.

'ZIG' is the brand name for Kuretake’s pen and marker which has been loved by many people.
In the 1970’s, Japan experienced nationwide depression during the post-war recession. People everywhere sought out low priced yet high quality stationery productions, and in this era came the birth of the new 'Kuretake ZIG' Fine liner pen. ZIG comes from the word 'zigzag', a concept based on the fluid, back and forth motion which comes with writing.
-
Kuretake Co., Ltd. was established in 1902 at Nara in Japan. Since then, by combining our Sumi Ink(Japanese Calligraphy Ink) with our own technological developments, we have achieved recognition as a manufacturer of high quality stationery products. With confidence that we could utilize our unique knowledge of multi-colored pigment inks, we decided to expand into Art & Crafts industry.

Fun to use and they have beautiful packaging which would really matters for gift giving, I want to buy a larger set in the future. (Note: The gold in this painting is from a different maker). I am beyond satisfied with this purchase.

1. affordability
2. ability to remove, replace, and repurchase empty pans
3. JetPens recommendation
and they have not disappointed! Good color payoff, I have traveled with them and there's no breakage. A good and useful variety of colors (for example, the shades of blues offered also have a few different values, preventing constant mixing) Another thing, I have been successful mixing these: wet the pan, scrap out the paints with a palette knife and onto a palette, mix.
Packaging is pretty sturdy. The cardboard casing is far superior than clear plastic pans and lids that ALWAYS breaks before the paint is used up) Plus, the lid comes with a cute little space to test paints.
Good stuff. Only issue being that there is only one brown and it's a red-clay brown that has been so far useless to me.
