Red Wine is a decanter dark burgundy with a pearl metallic running right through it, the shade that turns a plain drawer front into something that looks like it came out of a cellar lit dining room. Tip the jar toward the light and the claret warms to ruby; brush it out and it dries to a permanent, softly lustrous finish.

This water based Art Alchemy Metallique paint carries a heavy pigment load, so one 1.7 fl oz (50 ml) jar goes a long way on accent work. Dry brush it over mould castings and carved trim, block in a small tabletop, or work it into canvases, journals and mixed media art. Archival safe and non toxic, it layers beautifully with golds, coppers and deep neutrals from the rest of your paint shelf.
