Inorganic – Cadmium Sulphide is a ‘tangy’, bright, high-tint power yellow.

It’s an inorganic pigment that lightens and increases the opacity of warm mixes without overthrowing them. 

The Cadmium range of pigments was introduced into production between 1840 and 1890, as costs permitted, and it has proved the most artistically reliable of all the metal compounds discovered in the 19th-century.
