are these student or professional grade?

They are student grade, but they are extremely high quality student grade. They are made in the Netherlands by the same company which makes Rembrandt professional grade watercolors. To quote from the Dick Blick site, "Artists who try out Van Gogh products are often surprised that they're considered student grade." I love these paints, and they are affordable.

Are these watercolors or oil pastels?

It is a set of watercolours - unfortunately sometimes items can get merged in the Amazon catalogue incorrectly when they try to reduce duplicate items! You can always report incorrect information by clicking ' Report incorrect product information' and Amazon should change this based on the information provided. We have just reported this ourselves as well.

is the product shown what is to be expected?

If you have used Talens Van Gogh watercolor paints, then you know what to expect. I like them. The watercolors are highly pigmented, they re-wet easily, and the colors are super vibrant. This particular set is great to use at the studio. The wooden box is nicely built, and sturdy. The tray that holds the pans can be removed to use on a spare tin, if you have one, and take it on your travels. The mixing palette is made of plastic, which can be easily remove for cleaning, and replaced back. The fasteners keep the palette in place. The brushes are beautiful, a synthetic round 4, and a red sable pointed round 8. There's room in the box to add pencils or more brushes. I'm happy with this set. I'm my opinion is a great value.

What colors are in this set?

Perm. Lemon Yellow; AZO Yellow Med; Perm. Red Light; Madder Deep Lake; Ultramarine Deep; Cerulean Blue (Thalo); Viridian; Burnt Sienna; Chinese White; Payne's Grey. They are a good mixing set, and very vibrant.

Beautiful paints

Love these. Worth the price but if you can wait for a sale then do it. They glide easy, don’t take a lot of water to wet (vs. dry cake style), dries relatively fast, and the colors look great! Glad I found them!

Dubbel pannetje

Er zit een kleur dubbel in, ik heb 2x 331 en mis 366, kan hier nog iets mee gedaan worden? Ik krijg geen foto toegevoegd hiervan 👎 Na een mailtje gestuurd te hebben is dit opgelost doordat men het juiste pannetje op gaat sturen, deze moet ik nog wel ontvangen..
