Discover the expressive depth of traditional Japanese ink with the Kuretake Gansai Tambi Sumi Colours Set. Drawing on more than 120 years of Kuretake ink-making expertise, these watercolours combine soot with coloured pigments to produce six deep, subdued shades inspired by sumi ink.

Each colour can create smooth tonal gradients from an intense, almost black shade to its underlying colour. Use more water to reveal the pigments and encourage subtle granulation, or apply with less water for a dark, opaque result with the distinctive lustre associated with sumi.
Ideal for sumi-e, illustration, painting, manga, calligraphy, brush lettering and atmospheric mixed-media artwork.

At Riot Art and Craft we'd like you to know that we are here to help you if something goes wrong with a product that you purchase from us. In order to assist you to ensure everything goes smoothly with your purchase and delivery, please be certain to:

Step 1: As soon as your package arrives, check that the correct items have been sent to you. Whilst we have multiple checks as we prepare your shipment, unintentional human errors can occur and the best time to verify everything is perfect is as soon as you receive your delivery. Check the cartons carefully as parts or small items can sometimes move around and easily be caught inside packaging or void-fill.
Step 2: Do not throw away any of the original packaging materials, such as boxes, instructions, inserts, bags etc. until you are satisfied with your order. If a problem arises it is normally much easier to resolve if everything is together - there's nothing worse than contacting us regarding a missing part and learning that it is carefully protected inside the foam protector, on its way to land fill in your local municipality because it was accidentally disarded.
Step 3: Carefully inspect all merchandise, taking care not to damage packaging.
Step 4: Please keep the supplied Riot Art and Craft invoice or packing slip / invoice slip with your important records. This helps us to more easily track the history of your purchase. If a problem occurs you can refer back to this information (or the order reference information that we email to you) to quickly enable us to understand which product you are referring to when you need assistance from us.
Step 5: Enjoy your new product!
