Iron Oxide Black CSK

Iron Oxide Black is a highly durable mineral pigment valued for its deep, neutral black tone and exceptional permanence. Composed primarily of magnetite, an iron oxide mineral found naturally within the earth, it has long been used in decorative coatings and architectural finishes where stability and longevity are essential. Modern production methods have refined the pigment to provide consistent colour and excellent tinting strength while retaining its natural mineral character.

Renowned for its outstanding lightfastness and compatibility with traditional paint systems, Iron Oxide Black has been widely employed in limewash, distemper, casein paints and other breathable wall paints. Its dense, neutral tone makes it particularly useful for creating greys, stone colours and muted shades when blended with earth pigments, allowing the production of authentic and enduring period colour palettes.

Rose of Jericho supplies high-quality Iron Oxide Black pigment for use in traditional decorative finishes and conservation projects. Its exceptional durability, natural mineral composition and versatility make it an indispensable pigment for the restoration and decoration of historic buildings and the creation of timeless colour schemes.
