Red Oxide (violet Shade) PR101

An inorganic iron oxide red/brown, a synthetic sibling of the naturally occurring burnt sienna/english red/indian red pigments. Whereas the yellow shade red oxide is more of a burnt orange or brownish scarlet red, this blue shade variety is more of a brownish crimson/wine red.  As such, it serves well for deepening reds or creates very intense darks when mixed with phthalo or ultramarine blue.  Its naturally darker masstone gives it more opacity/covering power, but it can still make interesting glazes when required.
