Create dramatic metallic graphite effects with the Kuretake Gansai Tambi Graphite Colours 6 Colour Set. Designed for artists, illustrators, calligraphers, and mixed media creators, this premium Japanese watercolour set combines rich graphite tones with a unique metallic sheen effect.
The Graphite Colours range delivers deep muted tones with subtle granulating texture and metallic luster. Once dry, the painted surface can be lightly polished to reveal a shimmering graphite finish, adding depth and reflective character to artwork. Ideal for illustration, urban sketching, calligraphy, abstract painting, journaling, and experimental mixed media techniques.
These distinctive colours activate smoothly with water to create expressive washes, textured brush work, and layered tonal effects suitable for both traditional and contemporary creative applications.

“Brilliant shop! Wonderful, prompt and attentive service and an excellent array of products (particularly given the size of the space). I usually order online and collect in store (another excellent service) to save the risk of parking my bike outside but always enjoy a wander when I’m in town. Highly recommended!”
– Jonathan
“I ordered 3 pads of watercolour paper and when it arrived I was amazed at the way it was packed. Bubble wrap, cardboard wrap then brown paper. As a result the paper arrived in perfect condition. Well done.”
– Graham
“So nice to have a shop not in a mall or a big impersonal space with knowledgeable helpful staff-full of all the art/craft supplies one could possibly want.”
– Halima
“I’ve only found this wonderful shop recently. I have been coming into this shop regularly since as I’m doing a few craft projects at the moment. The staff are absolutely lovely and have helped me anytime I needed assistance — even with recommendations!”
– Chantelle
“The staff were very helpful and patient and helped me get everything I needed to start traditional inking/inkwash art, which is not that common (but they had the supplies regardless). Coming from a digital background, I had very little idea about what I needed but they were very patient and kind in helping me pick out each piece of equipment.”
