Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I confess, I bought this set solely for the box. As soon as I saw that it features rolled edges on the flap, not flat sharp edges, I knew I had to buy it. Now that I can see it in person, I have to say that it's the best designed little metal watercolor box I've seen so far. All of the edges are rolled, even the top edge of the box, so I won't have to worry about cutting myself. Unlike other boxes this size,there is plenty of room to fit in a middle row of pans between the two built-in rows. (you will need to stick them in with blue-stick or magnetic tape) The pans are on a removable tray, and you can squeeze in 7 pans per row. However, if you do it would be very difficult to remove the tray, because of the rolled edge on the box. There is a ring on the bottom, on an inset surface, so you can set the box flat on a table. I bought the Decadent Pie set, because I couldn't tell what colors were in any of the sets, and I thought metallics would be nice. The colors are not named, just numbered from #25 - #36. No pigment information is included. I assume that they won't be light fast. There are 4 metallic colors, (pearl, silver, gold, copper) and the rest are non-metallic. They rewet very nicely, and do have plenty of color in them, so I'm happy with them, too. In addition to the 4 metallic colors, this set comes with several shades that will allow you to easily create almost any human flesh tone, from very pale, to very dark, plus a couple of blues, a green, and a yellow. It's an interesting palette, and I'm having fun playing with it.
