Boku-Undo Aurora Watercolours 6 Colours
Capture the magic and shifting brilliance of the aurora borealis directly on paper.
Say goodbye to ordinary glitter. The Boku-Undo Gansai Aurora set is a masterpiece of Japanese artisanal innovation. Created in Nara by the prestigious Boku-Undo, a brand with over two centuries of mastery in ink production, this set was developed with ultra-fine interference mica particles.
In the pan, the colours appear almost entirely white or light grey. But as soon as they touch the paper, they reveal a spectacle of light, colour, and multi-dimensional reflections.
The Color-Shift Effect
The great exclusivity of the Aurora line is its ability to reflect light dynamically. Unlike common metallic paints that always maintain the same tone, these colours change and transform depending on the viewing angle and the inclination of the paper. Additionally, Boku-Undo's traditional formula uses high-quality binders that set with a sophisticated and creamy finish, avoiding the excessively artificial or pasty look of other brands.
Boku-Undo's Aurora line is composed purely of Synthetic Interference Mica coated with Titanium Dioxide and Metal Oxides. Due to this inorganic mineral composition, the paints do not use traditional ASTM pigments but offer exceptional long-term permanence.
According to independent long-term lightfastness tests, none of the colours showed fading or alteration after several months of direct sun exposure:

- Dual Personality (White Paper vs. Black Paper):
- On white paper: They work as a translucent, subtle, pearlescent veil, perfect for adding a mystical shimmer to insect wings, flower petals, or aquatic surfaces.
- On black paper: They reveal their full chromatic power, shining intensely with vibrant, opaque, and metallic colors that contrast dramatically with the dark background.
- Complete Cosmic Palette: Six essential high-luminosity colors — Gold, Silver, Red, Green, Blue, and Purple.
- Total Lightfastness: Unlike some botanical pigments or dyes, the mica base used in this Aurora set is 100% lightfast, ensuring that the sparkle and colors of your artwork will not fade over the years.
- Perfect for Calligraphy and Lettering: Its excellent fluidity makes this set a favorite for creating details on wedding invitations, posters, festive cards, and mixed media illustrations.
Artist Pro-Tip:
To create unparalleled three-dimensional depth and an effect that mimics the silky texture of velvet, try mixing the colors from this Aurora set with the classic E-Sumi (Shadow Black) set from Boku-Undo. The fusion of the dark sumi ink base with the celestial Aurora reflections creates an absolutely stunning artistic contrast.
Bring the mystical luminosity of the Japanese night sky to your creations!
