Ultramarine Blue

The pigment ultramarine, meaning "beyond the sea," was originally derived from the semi-precious gemstone lapis lazuli. The finest lapis stones were sourced from Afghanistan, a region beyond the Mediterranean, inspiring its name. This deep, magical blue can also be synthesized using China clay, calcite, and sulfur, resulting in a purer, more vibrant shade. Today, many iconic works of art rely on this synthetic, mineral-based pigment. The luminous blue vaulted ceiling of the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua was created with natural ultramarine, a hue so radiant it seems to emit light from the vault itself. Similarly, Karl Friedrich Schinkel's stage design for the Queen of the Night's Hall in Mozart’s The Magic Flute (1816) was crafted using lapis lazuli. In the 1950s, Yves Klein’s monochrome masterpieces made synthetic ultramarine blue world-famous, showcasing its unparalleled brilliance. Early in our company’s history, we developed two formulations for this legendary blue—one natural and one synthetic. Architect Max Dudler selected the synthetic formulation for the stunning Museum Island subway station in Berlin, creating a celestial ceiling that stands as a modern marvel and a testament to the timeless magic of ultramarine. Use our formulation to experience the captivating beauty of ultramarine blue, blending history, art, and innovation.
