A naturally occurring pigment [derived from] indefinite mixtures of iron oxide and organic matter. 1, record 1, English, - Cassel%20brown
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Like Cologne and Cassel Earth, it is a native earth, composed of clay, iron oxide, decomposed vegetation (humus), and bitumen. Fairly transparent. Deep-toned and less chalky than umbers in mixtures. One of the worst driers in oil. Some specimens fade, and in oil this pigment always turns dark, cracks, and causes wrinkling, exhibiting the same defects as asphaltum, but to a somewhat lesser degree. Not for permanent oil painting. Some of the lightproof grades may be used in watercolor and pastel. [It] dates from the seventeenth century. 3, record 1, English, - Cassel%20brown
