Rublev Colours Pigment Litharge (Massicot) - 100 g

Rublev Litharge is made by a modern process of direct oxidation of lead, wielding a finely divided yellow-orange powder of high purity. Litharge is monoxide of lead and usually contains about 93 percent of lead and 7 percent of oxygen. It is not used as a pigment in oil painting but in manuscript illumination (egg tempera and watercoluor) and infrequently in fresco painting.
