Calceterra Natural Sands Individual Colours
The 20 individual colours (see images below) are ground and processed natural pigments used to colour your chosen CalceTerra base.
They can be used on their own or mixed with one or more other colours as desired. See the Colour Chart showing 60 different combinations or you can also create your own bespoke formula.
Natural Sands can be added to CalceTerra Cotton, Linen, Jute and Hemp to obtain the 60 shades of the collection. These CalceTerra finishes can be protected using the natural sealer, Caseina, Opako or Invisibile.
These pigments are available in 100 or 300 gram tubs.

1 kg CalceTerra requires 20 g Natural Sands
5 kg CalceTerra requires 100 g Natural Sands
15 kg CalceTerra requires 300g Natural Sands
To colour CalceTerra
The colours of CalceTerra are obtained by adding Natural Sands, available in 20 different shades, to your chosen base. Each colour has its own name and code number, for example, 73 - Terra di Cipro.
