The full twelve stood side by side, each tube carrying its shade name, catalogue number and permanence stars.
Description
Gouache is watercolour that has been made opaque, and this is the twelve-tube set most people who take it seriously start from. Each 15 ml tube carries its shade name, a catalogue number and a permanence rating printed as stars, which is what separates an artist range from a school set: you can reorder exactly what you used, and you know before you buy how well a colour is expected to hold up.
The twelve are Titanium White 009, Ivory Black 034, Burnt Sienna 221, Burnt Umber 223, Yellow Ochre 663, Cadmium Yellow Hue 620, Portrait Pink 578, Permanent Rose 537, Cadmium Red Hue 503, Cerulean Hue 112, Ultramarine Blue 123 and Cobalt Blue Hue 110. That is a full working palette — two earth browns, an ochre, two reds, a rose, a portrait pink and three separate blues — rather than a rainbow of six.
Here is the fact that should decide your purchase, and it is one only a shop carrying both sets can tell you. Our Aquafine Gouache Starter Set of 6 contains Titanium White 009, Cadmium Yellow Hue 620, Cadmium Red Hue 503, Ultramarine Blue 123, Yellow Ochre 663 and Burnt Umber 223 — and every one of those six is already inside this twelve. Buy the six first and later want more, and you will be paying for six tubes you already own. If you think you will go past six shades, buy the twelve outright.
The per-tube arithmetic backs that up rather than driving it. This set is Rs. 883.33 a tube against Rs. 891.67 for the starter six, a difference under one percent. The twelve is not a bulk discount; it is simply the set that does not strand you.
Against the rest of our gouache shelf the position is clear. The TiTi Artists' Gouache set of twelve is Rs. 3,300 for 20 ml tubes — Rs. 13.75 per millilitre against Rs. 58.89 here, roughly a quarter of the price and the right buy for a student learning the medium. Our Daler-Rowney Designers' Gouache is dearer still at Rs. 1,166.67 a tube. Aquafine sits deliberately in the middle.
It suits art and design students from about 12 years up. The Safencia price is Rs. 10,600 with Cash on Delivery across Pakistan. Stock, your city, and delivery charges are confirmed on WhatsApp before dispatch.

FAQs
Should I buy the Aquafine Gouache Set of 12 or the starter six?
Buy the twelve if you expect to want more than six shades. Every tube in our Aquafine Starter Set of 6 is already inside the Aquafine Gouache Set of 12, so buying the six first and upgrading later means paying for six duplicates.
Which twelve shades are in the set?
Titanium White 009, Ivory Black 034, Burnt Sienna 221, Burnt Umber 223, Yellow Ochre 663, Cadmium Yellow Hue 620, Portrait Pink 578, Permanent Rose 537, Cadmium Red Hue 503, Cerulean Hue 112, Ultramarine Blue 123 and Cobalt Blue Hue 110.
How is gouache different from watercolour?
Gouache is opaque where watercolour is transparent, so the Aquafine Gouache Set of 12 covers what is beneath it and dries to a flat matte surface. It is reworkable with water like watercolour, but a light shade will sit over a dark one.
What do the stars on the tube mean?
They are the maker's permanence rating for that shade. Each tube in the Aquafine Gouache Set of 12 carries its own rating, so you know how a colour is expected to hold up before you commit it to a finished piece.
Is it worth four times the price of your TiTi gouache set?
That depends on the work. The TiTi twelve is Rs. 13.75 per millilitre against Rs. 58.89 for the Aquafine Gouache Set of 12, and is the sensible buy while you are learning. Aquafine earns its price when named shades and permanence ratings start to matter.
How should the tubes be stored?
Cap them firmly and store them flat or nozzle up. Gouache in the Aquafine Gouache Set of 12 dries hard if air reaches the tube, and a cap left loose in a warm room is the usual way a shade is lost.
Can I rewet gouache once it has dried on the palette?
Yes, which is one of the practical advantages of the medium. Dried gouache from the Aquafine Gouache Set of 12 lifts again with water, so paint left on a palette overnight is not wasted.
Can I pay cash on delivery for Aquafine Gouache Set of 12 in Pakistan?
Yes. Cash on Delivery is available across Pakistan, including Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, Rawalpindi and many other cities.
How fast is delivery in Pakistan?
Orders are confirmed on WhatsApp before dispatch. Delivery usually takes 3-5 working days in major Pakistani cities, depending on courier route and city.
