Earth of Vicenza, Italian pigment Dolci

Vicenza earth, or white earth, is a natural inorganic mineral pigment, which can also be obtained synthetically. Improperly called Cadmium of Schio, this siliceous earth is present on all continents and was known to many ancient civilizations.

It is obtained from appropriately aerated and purified kaoliniferous clay. In appearance it looks like a medium-fine clay that easily clots into small and medium lumps, while with an average amount of thinner it becomes a transparent, non-fluid, slightly earthy paste. The tint is transparent and not compact, it is light and has practically no covering power. It has a very low coloring power and is recommended to be used as a glaze or mixed with other colours. If less diluted it is more compact, "sticky" and difficult to use, therefore the more diluted variant is recommended.

I don't practice iconography, but I try my hand at chip carving. I searched high and low online looking for basswood boards to pursue my hobby, and I bought several from different suppliers. I've always spent a lot on cheap boards. One day I ended up, by chance, on the Dal Molin Carpentry website and a world opened up to me. Boards of all sizes, and even particular shapes... I ordered some to try and I have to say: FINALLY! Finally some high quality boards, well finished and at fair prices. I immediately added the site to my favorites, from which I plan to order often :) A thousand thanks!
