Williamsburg Violet Pigments
Cobalt Violet Light (Reddish)
#728P Cobalt Violet Light
PV49
Ethereal, delicate, sublime. Not a strong tinter.
 
Cobalt Violet Deep

#748P Cobalt Violet Deep
PV14
Richer, Bluer, and stronger than the Violet Light with a beautiful, deep, opaque glow.

 
Egyptian Violet
#805P Egyptian Violet
PV23
Intense, royal violet. Very deep, very strong tinting (like Phthalo). An unusually rare color. Like Tyrian Purple.
 
Manganese Violet
#704P Manganese Violet
PV16
This violet is a substantial rather heavy,  earth loud violet - not subtle like the etheral, limpid cobalts.  Some companies call this mineral violet reddish.
 
Quinacridone Violet
#785P Quinacridone Violet
PB19
An intense, exotic, blue relative of Quinacridone Red. Hot, hot magenta, like a lurid peony. Great clarity in mixing and glazing.
 
Ultramarine Pink

#972P Ultramarine Pink
PV15
A beautiful transparent, limpid pink.  Like all ultramarines this leans toward blue--but very slightly--not enough to be violet.  Very close in feel to original Rose Madder,  but more delicate.  Imagine a very rich rose quality with a slight blush of pale amethyst.

 
Ultramarine Violet
#764P Ultramarine Violet
PV15
Beautiful, natural-looking violet. Does not look synthetic in any way. Its only limitation is that it is an extremely weak tinter. Its beauty is properly seen in glazes.
