Pebeo贝碧欧
Made in China.
Size
Available in 100ml and 250ml tubes, and 500ml and 1000ml bottles.






Recently, I bought a box set of Pebeo pan watercolours to try out.
Pebeo watercolours are available in tubes and pans. They seem to only have one range currently called the Fine series. In this range, there are only 28 colours. The paints are made in China.
Pebeo watercolours are actually student grade watercolour. I bought this set because the pricing is very attractive.
The palette box is painted all white including the exterior. What I like about it is the second mixing area when flipped open is totally parallel to the ground surface.
For cleaning, you can remove the pan holder plate inside. This is just like box sets from other brands.
The colours included are
- Primary Lemon Yellow - *** - 1
- Cadmium Yellow Pale - *** - 1
- Primary Red Cadmium - *** - 1
- Alizarine Crimson - * - 3
- Primary Phthalo Blue - *** - 1
- Cobalt Blue - *** - 1
- Permanent Green - *** - 1
- Earth Green - *** - 1
- Yellow Ochre - *** -1
- Burnt Sienna - *** - 1
- Burnt Umber - *** - 1
- Ivory Black - *** - 1
The lightfast rating of *** represents excellent lightfast and * means it will fade. Alizarin Crimson for example is the one that's going to fade faster when exposed to light.

You get what you pay for with the Pebeo. The colours are not strong, pastel-like and a bit chalky at times.
It's very difficult to get the pigment from the pans. Hence, mixing colours is very frustrating. As such, I don't even feel like I want to use them for painting any examples. It's that bad.
After spending so much effort to dissolve the paint, it's quite disappointing to see the low intensity of the paints.
You can see that the WN Cotman series has colours that are more intense than Pebeo. The difference is quite clear. Schminke and Sennelier are the most intense, but they are artist grade quality paints.
