"Organic, Natural Earth – An impure, amorphous Carbon in Calcium Phosphate, Ivory Black is no longer made from burnt ivory scraps but from charred animal bones. It is denser in shade and cooler than Lamp Black, with stronger tint power. Ivory Black, the blackest of the blacks, is the most frequently used black in the range."

I bought this to use experimenting with the Zorn palette. It makes a good range of colours when used with cadmium red light and yellow ochre, plus white, in that application. However, I prefer Paynes Grey to Ivory Black in a Zorn application because it gives a livelier range of colours, especially cooler colours.

A lovely ivory black, the darkest you can get, not weak or brownish like some other companies' ivory blacks, and not too oily like many are. A very well-made paint.
Lush dark, great under the brush. Love MH paints!
