Persian Purple = Persian blue — „My first order from Eye Candy. I'd bought sample sets elsewhere, but I'd never use half the colours. Eye Candy won because it sells each colour separately and in several sizes.“
FyreBorn Woodworking✔ verified purchase
I love these colours — „The colours mix beautifully and evenly, no dead spots. The shades are true to the samples. I'm so glad I found this company — my little resin pieces look really nice.“

Frequently asked questions
How much pigment should I add to epoxy?
From our hands-on practice: 0.5–1 g per kg of mix for a translucent effect (river, sea water), ~3 g/kg for full colour, 5 g/kg for opaque coverage. Always mix it into a small amount of resin first, then into the rest.
Will the pigment sink in a deep pour?
Persian Purple has 10-60 μm particles that stay evenly dispersed in the mix. Only coarse pigments with 200–700 μm particles (e.g. flakes) can sink — letting the resin thicken slightly or stirring the mix during the process helps.
Which resin is it suitable for?
Any epoxy resin. For crystal-clear castings in which the pearl stands out, we recommend the systems DIPON LuminaCast — Ocean Flow for river tables, Gem Flow for jewellery.
Does Persian Purple glow in the dark?
No — it is a classic pearl (Solid Pearl). If you are looking for a glow effect, go for the series Glow in the dark, and for a glow under a UV lamp, for the Neon UV series.
