Peerless makes the world's most brilliant, vibrant colours. They were developed in 1885 by Charles F. Nicholson. The formula he created for his fantastic watercolours has always stayed the same. Today, the same process is used in the creation of the product.

An excellent alternative to liquid retouch dyes.

Do not fade, and do not change colour when heated.

Warm Sepia is for retouching Black & White and Sepia prints.

Each colour can be used individually or in combination with other colours for spotting any black & white print.

The colours are acid-free and 100% non-toxic.

They are created from mineral dyes and do not have the harsh ingredients contained in pigment colours.

Handmade in Wisconsin using the same age-old technique that was developed in 1885.

Liquid dyes are the very same watercolour dyes as the dry sheets dyes.

Other colours are available in either dry dye sheets or liquid colours, including Lamp Black, Ivory Black, Pearl Gray and Black Opaque.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Madison ★★★★★

I've been using these for hand-colouring vintage prints, and the pigment stays suspended in water far longer than my old tubes. The coverage is incredibly even with just a touch of brush pressure.

Lucy ★★★★★

I was pleasantly surprised by how little water it takes to get that deep, rich pigmentation—perfect for touching up vintage prints. The liquid flows smoothly without any clumping, making fine detail work a breeze. Definitely going to buy more colours from this line soon.

Julian ★★★★★

This grey mixed up into the most beautiful translucent wash I've ever seen, perfect for shadow work on prints. A single drop goes a long way—the pigment density is truly something else.
