products containing animal derived ingredients:

  • oil paints containing the pigment PBK9 /bone black (unfortunately, I could not find any information about the ingredients of the products on the website, and on the products’ MSDS (material safety data sheets) and additional information sheets. Maybe a retailer will offer those, or on the packaging; I looked through different products, but could not find any ingredients lists.

Mont Marte’s paints do not contain cadmium or cobalt; the colour names are only based on historical and traditional oil paint colour names.
