Info
L'Aquarelle Sennelier has been produced in the same way for more than a century using the best pigments and top quality Kordofan Gum Arabic as a bonding agent. The honey used in L'Aquarelle Sennelier acts not only as a preservative, but also as an additive bestowing incomparable brilliance and smoothness to the paint. Always striving for excellence, Sennelier has revamped its watercolor formula, increasing the amount of honey to reinforce the longevity, radiance, and luminosity of the colors. True to Sennelier's roots, the color palette remains that of the Impressionists and the paint is, as always, made in France using traditional methods; each color is ground in the traditional way using grindstones rotating slowly so as not to heat up the paste. This operation is carried out in several stages until the paste are as fine as possible thus getting rid of any particles which might impair the smoothness of the wash.
This set contains one Raphael Kolinsky Sable round (size 4) and 98 colors from the Sennelier l’Aquarelle range. This is the full range of colors listed in the color chart below, apart from one color (Opera Rose), which Sennelier have been unable to make recently due to supply issues. While these problems persist, Opera Rose will be replaced with an extra tube in a similar color. The colors are housed within a wooden presentation box for protection during storage or transport.

Fabulous set of watercolours, I absolutely love them. First class service from Jacksons
Review
I would rate this product 4/5 stars. The paints themselves are gorgeous and everything you'd expect from the photos, but the packaging is not. The wooden box is poorly crafted, and does not shut tightly enough to secure the paint. The paint arrived in complete chaos (no fault of Jackson's, they wrapped it with great care) and cannot be stored on it's side, as the tubes will slide down. It also does not have a handle, and at this price it really should be constructed to be carried. Still very happy with all of my exciting new colors, but Sennelier needs to redesign their packaging.
Review
Excellent value for money and a useful library reference of the Sennelier range. Well known transparency and glazing qualities. Surprisingly well made box. I received my set a couple of weeks ago and can confirm that it did include the complete 98 available colours including Opera Rose (plus a couple of useful duplicates). Usual impeccable service from Jacksons.

I started using St Petersburg paints way back when I worked in the Middle East and once they became available in Europe as White Night I ordered a set immediately. I like them, there's lots of pigment in with the gum and I use them for all my sketching and travelling work. There's a good range of colours too, something not always available with even the better student paints. Thumbs up!

I wanted the best watercolor paints and I finally got them as a present to myself. The box arrived well packaged and the wooden case was in tact with no damage. The tubes were in a jumble from shipping and I quickly put them in order to make sure I got 98. I have one each extra of Sennelier red, Yellow Sophie and French ultramarine blue. I ordered opera rose from another source and I hope it works out to complete my set. I am glad the extras were the primary colors, great combo for experimenting with color mixing. The 10ml tubes will last me a good long time. Getting this set was a great value.

I greet you from Chile. A few days ago came the long awaited box. I am very happy, although I am intrigued that there is a color that does not come, the Opera Rose. Curiously it is not for sale in tube, only in pans. But just as happy with my acquisition. Thank you.
Review
Oooh lovely. Smooth paint, rich pigments. You don't need to use a lot of these to achieve a good depth of colour. Almost, almost could have left the tubes in their box just to look at. However, would have preferred a more usable cantilever box to the large and unwieldy tray, but its sooo nice to see all the tubes set out in regimented lines.

I'm so happy! Now I have these "candies" =)

Perfect wooden case of colours !
Review
As the previous reviewers mentioned, this is a great economical buy in terms of cost per tube. However, this was missing the opera rose which is a shame because I absolutely love the colour. They did provide a primary yellow, blue and red instead. The packaging was versy sturdy and this box made its way to me without a scratch! The paints are as buttery and vibrant as I would expect from Sennelier. Thanks Jacksons!

Apart from making a colour chart for these paints, have only tried using them a little so far, but they are wonderfully luscious to use and represent excellent value compared to buying individually. As well as the 2 colours which were duplicated, which was expected, (making the box 100 in all), one other colour was duplicated and the one next to it was missing, but am not too worried about that, Jackson's had the cheapest price for this set I could find online.The wooden box is quite big and not always easy to close, so have put them in set of small drawers I bought cheaply that have a smaller footfall.

Excellent product of excellent value from this supplier

I have previously used sennelier and I am a huge fan so couldnt resist the idea of the complete set. They represent a huge saving over buying individual tubes and the box is lovely if a little big and heavy. Lovely colour range particularly good for botanical painting.
Review
Fluid, flexible, intense, and subtle when required, these paints are excellent. The colour range in this 98 tube (100 actually) set allows for an almost infinite range of transparent washes. The quality is everything and more that you would expect of Sennelier, and at the price foolish to resist!
