Brilliance, suppleness and smoothness are characteristics of the Fragonard range of artists' quality oil colours from Pebeo. The Fragonard Oils are made from linseed, poppy seed and sunflower oils. This composition has been chosen following numerous specialist laboratory tests undertaken to guarantee the best compromise between yellowing and UV ageing. All the pastes are ground many times on tri-rollers to ensure their fine quality. The extreme purity of the pigments used guarantees their perfect mixability.
The range consists of 104 colours in 37ml tubes, 39 colours in 80ml tubes and 16 colours in 200ml tubes.
Pebeo, based in Provence, France, is a family owned manufacturer of colours and accessories for artists around the world. Founded in 1919 by Claudius Chaveau, Pebeo has handed down its passion for the alchemy of art from father to son. Robert Chaveau placed the emphasis on creativity and quickly became noted for his innovations in materials for fine art, graphics, craft and educational paints.
Eric Chaveau, the current chief executive, developed his father's work and gave Pebeo an international dimension. Thus, for three generations the same ideology and the same mission has been perpetuating: offer everyone the means to full expression in finding the pleasure of using quality products that are easy to use and that fully meet their expectations. Their ongoing research combining the talent of chemist and artist allows Pebeo to be recognised as the one of the most creative companies in the paint business.
