Rublev Colours Artists Oil Paint – Crystal White (150ml) is a distinctive mixing white designed for artists who want pale tints without overpowering colour. Crystal White combines lead white (PW1) with finely ground leaded crystal glass, creating a subtly different optical effect when blended into other pigments. Because the refractive index of the crystal glass is close to that of drying oil, it behaves more transparently in mixtures—helping you lift value while keeping chroma and colour character intact.
Made with walnut oil and no added fillers, waxes, or stabilisers, this paint handles with a clean, refined feel and is ideal for tinting, glazing mixtures, and nuanced highlights where you want brightness without the heavy “chalky” look some whites can introduce. The generous 150ml tube is perfect for studios that go through a lot of white during mixing and underpainting.
