755 Ivory Black

• PBk9 ^{●●●●●}

This comes from the charring of animal bones in a vacuum; it is no longer made from ivory as used to be the case. It produces a warm, intense black which turns brownish when mixed with whites. Very good lightfastness. When used for oil painting it requires a high percentage of binding agent. Does not dry well. Used for all techniques. Black for Fresco is preferable for fresco work.
