'Marbling Provisions'
An opportunity to top up your marbling supplies or build your own kit.
The below prices exclude VAT which will be added at the checkout point (if applicable)
The drop-down menu lists all the items that are currently available to purchase and you can add as many or as few as you wish.
I have added an asterisk to all items I think should be purchased if you are completely new to marbling and have no other supplies.
A few notes follow to make your ordering as easy as possible and to hopefully answer any questions you might have:
**We would recommend ordering AT LEAST the following:
**CARRAGEENAN
** ALUM
** INSTRUCTIONS
** 'EXPANDER'
** GOUACHE PAINT
** PAPER
Carrageenan - 200g, the absolute must for getting results with your marbling. This is high 'food grade' carrageenan and is what we use in the workshop everyday. No bulking agent has been added.
Alum + gloves - the 'Aluminium Potassium Sulphate' is an important factor as it ensures the paint sticks to the surface. Gloves should be worn throughout the aluming process as it is classed as an irritant.
Instructions - specific to our marbling provisions, we do not recommend buying these on their own. They are comprehensive and outline how to mix the marbling supplies and how to use them.
Paper - A mix of our most frequently used papers in the workshop it will comprise of:
5 full sized sheets of buttermilk - 510mm x 780mm long grain
4 coloured papers depending upon current stock - 510mm x 780mm long grain
10 sheets of Fabriano - 350mm x 225mm
Paints - Winsor and Newton Designer Gouache 14ml tubes for you to mix yourselves (you will need some jam jars or small pots and to purchase the 'expander' which enables the paints to spread on the surface of the 'size')
You can purchase a set of 3 primary colours or a set of black and white.
