Kaolin,Dextrine,Sugar,Talc,Chalk,Pigments 1.5" diameter Artjärvi These gouache colors are used in every Finnish elementary school to teach children about color. Kids are given a set of 5 on a cardboard pallet to blend. Look closely and notice the “Made in Finland” insignia. Made by a firm established in 1907, we visited their factory in the countryside; it was a small place their home was adjacent to. The mother and co-owner of the business showed us around, the top floor was packing and warehousing; the bottom floor was where the goods were made. We saw rooms where the watercolors were processed, one color at a time, with the room shifting color based on whichever is being produced. It was a pretty exciting operation, totally down to earth and very basic, not at all what one imagines when you have their product in your hand. I was thinking assembly line, teams of people, industrial environment, etc etc. It is very different from the New Jersey Turnpike industrial view. Even though these are non-toxic please keep an eye on the kids and make sure they do not eat them.
