## Overview

Winsor & Newton Cotman Watercolour Set offers 20 essential 5ml tubes of high-quality, transparent watercolors with excellent lightfastness.

## Description

Cotman Water Colours are a range of water colours that are made to our normal high quality standards but costs are kept to an economical level by replacing some of the more costly pigments with less expensive alternatives.
The range consists of colours which possess good transparency, excellent tinting strength and good working properties.
This popular pocket-sized plastic box features an integral mixing palette in the lid and contains a pocket brush and 12 Cotman Water Colour half pans: Lemon Yellow, Cadmium Yellow, Cadmium Red Pale Hue, Crimson Alizarin, Ultramarine, Intense Blue, Emerald Green, Sap Green, Yellow Ochre, Burnt Sienna, Burnt Umber, China White. Actual contents may vary.
Costs are kept to an economical level by replacing some of the more costly pigments with less expensive alternatives. Pigments derive from a number of sources: Some are natural products, notably the earths, eg. umbers, ochres; others come from metal compounds and are sometimes termed 'traditional' or 'genuine', eg. ultramarine.
The distillation of petroleum yields an ever widening range of organic pigments which are often termed as 'modern'. Many of the pigments used in Cotman are organic.
The Cotman Water Colour range has a more uniform consistency than the Professional Water Colour range and this benefits beginners as there is less to learn about each individual pigment. The Cotman Water Colour range also relates to the Winsor & Newton Professional Water Colour range, e.g. Burnt Sienna in both ranges has the same hue. This enables artists to use colours from both ranges with minimal adjustment to their technique.
Traditionally the white of the paper provides the brilliance to water colour and can be used as highlights. However, some artists utilize Chinese White for highlights at the end of their painting or in dulling some colour mixtures down.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is meant by 12 count? 12 of what?**
A: I have searched for the answer to your question.  There are 20 tubes.  Not sure where the number 12 came from.

**Q: Do you know if they are "Artist" grade or student grade?**
A: The Cotman line from Winsor/Newton is student grade.  Professional grade watercolors do not use the word "Hue" in their color description, which indicates they're not made from true pigments.

**Q: Good morning, I would like you to send the order again, with a new package, as soon as possible, instead of the refund. thank you.**
A: I dont think I can help with this lol

**Q: Does a pallet tray come with this set?**
A: Yes removable as well.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent value for money from Winsor & Newton
*by  on Reviewed in the United Arab Emirates 23 June 2026*

I bought this 20-tube Cotman set to fill my travel palettes. The paints are smooth, have good transparency, and dry well in pans. The color selection is practical and versatile. Excellent value for money from Winsor & Newton

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best color shades
*by  on Reviewed in the United Arab Emirates 18 April 2023*

These are the best color shades by W&N in my opinion. Have used both Professional and Cotman series. I see no great difference in both series to justify spending extra money on the professional paints.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 ml
*by  on Reviewed in the United Arab Emirates 18 March 2023*
