About Charvin

The history of the Charvin color makers dates back to 1830, when they were the go-to supplier for some of the most famous artists of the time, including Cézanne, Bonnard, and Ambrogiani. Charvin artists' oil colors have long been recognized as one of Europe's premier paint lines, and they have now created a companion line of extra fine acrylic paints unparalleled by any other!
