Gansai Tambi Single Pans

Gansai Tambi Watercolors by Kuretake blend traditional Japanese artistry with vibrant, modern color. These paints are known for their rich, opaque pigments and creamy consistency, offering a unique painting experience somewhere between watercolor and gouache. Housed in oversized pans, the colors are bold and luminous—even on dark paper—and rewet beautifully. Perfect for calligraphy, illustration, and expressive washes, Gansai Tambi paints are a favorite for artists who love strong color, smooth blending, and a touch of tradition in every stroke.
