Today, I am going to be unboxing and swatching these stunning A Gallo handmade watercolour paints - watch me swatch all the colours (plus a few others) from their Signature 12 Palette. These stunning artisan watercolours are made in Italy and are Cadmium, Lead, Mercury and Cobalt free. They are made by a traditional recipe and were an absolute joy to swatch.
For further information about this incredible brand here is the link to their website - be warned! they are often out of stock due to the high demand and restocks can sell out rather quickly. These wonderful colours were gifted to me by A Gallo - I am going to treat myself to a few more!
