## Overview

The Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor Paint Set features 12 professional-grade, water-based pigment colors inspired by natural hues. Its unique formula offers vibrant, semi-transparent washes that can also be used as gouache, drying to a subtle sheen. Larger pans provide versatility for various brush sizes, making it perfect for artists and crafters of all skill levels. Packaged elegantly, it’s a sophisticated gift choice for creative professionals and enthusiasts alike.

## Description

Gansai Tambi are Eastern Watercolors, available in 12 colors that are based off colors found in nature, and so they are vibrant without being overly saturated. Due to their richness and opaqueness, Gansai are semi-transparent and can be used as a gouache unless mixed heavily with water.

Review: Japanese Watercolor - Kuretake Gansi Tambi watercolor palettes come in a variety of beautiful colors. The pans are quite large and hold a lot of paint. The palettes are held in cardboard boxes and are OK but I wish Kurtake would sell metal palette boxes that would fit the pans. I’d be fine buying them separately. The paint is different than standard professional watercolors but it is very good quality. It is highly granulating and when applied to wet paper moves beautifully and is fun to use. The paint dries nicely too and maintains its color. I’m glad that I added Kurtake to my collection of watercolor paints.
Review: Good Quality Watercolor Paints & Nice Variety of Colors - Very pretty colors in this smaller set. They cover nicely and I have had no complaints about them. I have purchased multiple sets of this brand and really like them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value!
*by K***S on June 12, 2025*

These are gorgeous watercolors! I've been wanting them for ages and finally treated myself to them. While they aren't the usual transparent watercolors, they are rich and vibrant in saturation. A little goes a long way. The pans are large so it's easy to use larger brushes and they'll last a long time. They are a great investment!
