Winsor & Newton have been producing artists’ materials since 1832 and remain one of the most respected names in watercolour. Here's an introduction to our favourite watercolour sets, which you can purchase here in our online shop.

They were the first company to publish the exact composition and permanence ratings of every colour, giving artists complete confidence in what they buy. Their paints are made with only the finest pigments, ground on triple-roll mills for maximum dispersion and consistency.

This process, combined with strict quality control, delivers unrivalled lightfastness, purity and performance.

Their Professional Watercolour range is their flagship collection, made exclusively with the finest single-pigment colours for maximum lightfastness, purity and professional performance.
