About Caran d'Ache
With its long tradition of precious expertise handed down through the generations, Caran D'Ache devotes its passion and rigor to designing and producing exceptional products: writing instruments, art and drawing materials. Known the world over for "Swiss Made" quality, the subtle luxury, craftsmanship, authenticity and contemporary personality of the products never cease to surprise people and start them dreaming.. The name Caran d'Ache is rooted in the annuals of art history. When Arnold Schweitzer founded the company in 1924, he named it after a famous French caricaturist Emmanuel Poiré (1859-1909), whose work he admired. Mr. Poiré signed his works Caran d'Ache, a French transliteration of the Russian word for pencil - "karandash".

- Reviewed in Canada on July 4, 2025Verified PurchaseThis Caran D'ACHE Gouache set of 15 is super vibrant, and it dries the same vibrant way. It's amazing. It blends, blossoms like watercolor, can be transparent like watercolor, and it isn't chalky. I've compared it to another brand that claims a high vibrant result and it's a little better than the Inktense by Derwent. Though they're both absolutely beautiful paints. The Caran D'ACHE goes on smooth and creamy, or smooth and watery, depending on how much water you load into your brush. This Gouache can be lifted if need be, while the other brand I compared it to for vibrancy can't be lifted because it's an Inktense water-based ink formula, and ink doesn't lift, it's permanent, if that's what you want. The Caran D'ACHE has full size pans in the pallet. You get a lot of paint for your money 💰 It comes with a decent brush and a tube of Gouache white. I am so pleasantly surprised by this product!

- Reviewed in Canada on January 13, 2025Verified PurchaseThis product is not exactly as gouache, it's more like between watercolour and gouache. Some colors are transparent as watercolour, some colours are opaque. The paint is very smooth and easy to work with.
The brush that comes with the package is not professional level.
It's a good set to bring out for some quick sketches.
- Reviewed in Canada on March 26, 2024Verified PurchaseI lovee these gouache pans! The pan size is actually big and there’s lots of paint so you don’t have to worry about running out of paint anytime soon. I love the idea of gouache in pans since it’s easier to travel with and less messier. I’m also new to gouache and I find these to be super easy and fun to use. You just need to place water on the pans, wait for it to activate or lather the pan with the brush and then you get loads of pigment and paint on the get go! This definitely made gouache my favourite medium to work with. Planning to get these again in the future:)
- Reviewed in Canada on December 25, 2024Verified PurchasePro: The pigments are highly
saturated
Pro: Can be watered down like watercolor to transparency
Con: Would have liked a purple
Con: Tin came dented beyond reshaping (hard to close the lid) and inside metal looked like it had paint smears on the mixing pan surface from a light blue color that doesn’t really resemble the set - since it came in plastic wrap, this is interesting
- Reviewed in Canada on February 16, 2022Verified PurchaseI love the ease of this sweet little tin - easy to store, grab and go, and easy to open up and start painting right away. To me, these little pans of gouache were just what I needed. I use the tube of white to help with the opacity of my projects, and you can easily adjust the amount of water you need for your preference (more transparency or more opacity - I know many gouache artists will vary on their preferences with this). For me, I love the vibrant pigments in these paints and how the little pans of paint seem to last and last. I plan on filling up the little pans once they’re done, to keep using and using this perfect gouache tin! - Review by Heather
- Reviewed in Canada on November 6, 2024Verified PurchaseExcellent!.
- Reviewed in Canada on April 2, 2024Verified PurchaseCaran d'Ache never disappoints and though these are student-grade paints they are fantastic plus, they last a long time. The downside is the pans are not sold separately.
- Reviewed in Canada on February 6, 2019Verified PurchaseThis was my first gouache set and I was very happy with it . It can with a caramel d ache 8 round brush that I can tell will probably start to wobble because of the poor lack of construction but for. Ow it is an excellent brush and comes to a nice tip . The paints come in removable pans that are huge . The colors then selves are creamy and smith . The beige is a little streaky and I read in a previous review that the fuisha was not lightfast at all but that the rest were fine . I plan on doing my own lightfast test and with update with photos when complete . The container while slightly flimsy was still nice with large mixing areas

SUSANAReviewed in Spain on May 23, 2018
5.0 out of 5 stars Muy versátiles
Verified PurchaseEs la primera vez que pinto con guache y he de decir que éstas pinturas son una maravilla. Son cremosas pero al mismo tiempo se dominan a la perfección. La caja es muy práctica. Tiene mucho espacio para mezclas. Está muy bien pensada para transportarla. No necesitas ir cargando con todos los tubos. Trae los colores adecuados para hacer una generosa carta de color y lograr una gran cantidad de ellos. Por otro lado decir que los colores son muy bonitos y brillantes. Se pueden utilizar más opacos con menos agua y hacerlos transparentes con más cantidad de ella, es decir, obtendréis acuarelas. La verdad es que es muy versátil y qué duda cabe que Caran d'ache es de las mejores marcas. Nunca defrauda. Merece la pena, de verdad. Los dibujos quedan preciosos. Hice una prueba con ellas y me encantó.
La caja mide 28 cm de largo x 11 cm de ancho x 2'5 cm de alto.

5.0 out of 5 stars So practical, clean, great colors and opacity *Cat, kitten "friendly"lol
Verified PurchaseAfter looking around for a "good" set of gouche, reading reviews I decided to get this set. Mainly I liked the idea of pans, it is cleaner and so convenient, since they dry out fast once you are done you can just close the lid and go. But I was worried about the consistency, the opacity and their ability to cover. I am rather new to this medium and so far I have been using those jelly cups gouche, which is the reason I started looking for something else in the first place. Those work fair enough but they are so messy, so streaky and the container weights a ton, so ugly! Okay enough, lets go back to these ones :-). I understand this is not an Artist quality gouache and that some people are concerned about their lighfastness of their pigments, although some claim to have contacted the company and have been told most of the colors in these palette have a very good lightfastness except for a couple of them. (Purple and the pinkish one) In my case I am not concern about their lighfastness, since I want to use Gouache for paintings and Illustration mainly in a sketchbook.
Since this set has such good reviews from fellow artists who do Gouache, I figure I give them a try. They are not expensive and you have plenty of colors to play around for a while. They are not Windsor and Newton designers Gouache, or Holbein etc nor should we compare them to them, but they are great for what they are, good for practicing, learning and sketching. The brush which comes with it is simply awesome!! If you are picky...maybe get the Windsor and Newton (big) white tube of Gouache and you are set for a while. The little white gouache which comes is fine but probably not as good the Windsor and Newton, anyway at one point rather soon you will be out of white so then get yourself W &N.
I am very happy with this choice, I know I will have to get Windsor and Newton Designer's Gouache anyway if I want to do the "real thing" as for Illustration, but this set is still a must have if you like plein air
painting, sketching or like to take your paints with you. The box is large but very sturdy, still way better than carrying tubes, palette, knife etc. So there it is, I recommend this Magic Red Box of Wonders to all of you kids (from 3 to 90) who like painting and stuff. You won't be sorry!
*I almost forgot you see I have cats....they walk all over my paints, drink my watercolor water, knock palettes, chew brushes...another reason I am dreading buying tubes or don't do Oil or Acrylic anymore. But this one I can simply close the lid, I have lids for the water, mixing palette etc LOL. You know, I stand a minute from my desk and they mess around with everything. You know what I am talking about if you have cats or dogs :-) Now If your dog runs away with this box the paints will still be good for you to use hahahaha.
