Red bolus - PR102

A reddish-brown, opaque earth tone with good lightfastness, resembling the wellknown red chalk.

The pigment comes from deposits in Upper Franconia (Bavaria).

Bolus means earth lump and refers to a reddish-coloured clay.

Red bolus is one of the oldest pigments, and drawing pencils from red bolus were sawn directly from clay-rich soils in the early Renaissance.
