Cadmium Orange No. 0, very light, PO 20

Cadmium pigments are renowned for their exceptional lightfastness, opacity, and versatility, making them suitable for a wide range of artistic techniques. However, their combustion releases toxic fumes, which necessitates the prohibition of their use in utilitarian and painting applications, such as colored wall designs. Additionally, we strongly advise against using these pigments in encaustic.
