Information from their website:

Information from their website: “Blockx’ watercolors still maintain secret splendour and are still composed of the finest ingredients, blended today in the same deliberate manner as did craftsmen of the past. Rare, tough pigments are thoroughly crushed, then coated in arabic gum and honey. They come to you, today, in 72 brilliant shades. We do not and never have prepared transient or unstable shades. A classification by degree of stability would, therefore be out of place.”
