Langridge's description;
"An elegant modern violet with a deep burgundy mass tone and sweet violet undertones. Quinacridone Violet mixes without dominating other colours and creates cool but not cold tints compared to Dioxazine Violet. Quinacridones are some of the most stable of all available pigments, tinting and glazing can be achieved with no loss of permanence."
