This exceptionally beautiful PrimaTek color is made from the more strongly colored of the two minerals known as jade – the other is Nephrite. Used for eons in China and Central America, this gemstone now becomes a spectacular artist’s color. From deep, dark-green mass tone to the palest wash, it creates all the exquisite shades we think of when we think of jade.
Starting with 10 parts water to 1 part paint (by weight) in the palette, our chemist paints the top half of the swatch uniformly with a round brush to show the paint’s color and characteristics. For the bottom half, he dips a ¾” flat brush into the paint well just once, then applies the color in stripes until the brush is dry, which shows the color’s tone and behavior through a wash. We use these swatches for color matching during the manufacturing process.
