Why Paris Green Is a Useful Pigment Colour

Paris Green is a useful mica powder colour when you want a green pigment that feels richer and more classic than lime green, but brighter and cleaner than olive green. It works well in botanical resin art, emerald-inspired colour palettes, decorative epoxy inlays, rich green river pours, holiday projects, and woodworking pieces where you want the green shimmer to stand out without feeling too neon or too muted.

This colour pairs well with white pearl, black pearl, gold, bronze, copper, blue, Caribbean blue, clear epoxy, walnut, white oak, ash, olive wood, and other natural wood tones. It can also be blended with other pigments to create custom emerald, jade, teal, forest green, deep green, and green metallic effects. Testing a small sample first is recommended so you can see how Paris Green looks in your exact epoxy, wax, soap base, coating, or craft material.

Why Beaver Dust Pigments Are Different

Beaver Dust Pigments are made with fine particles under 60 microns. This smaller particle size helps the pigment mix smoothly into epoxy and stay suspended while the resin cures, instead of settling to the bottom like some larger or heavier pigment particles can.

Paris Green Beaver Dust Pigment is especially useful when you want strong green colour, shimmer, and movement in cured resin. Use a small amount for a more transparent green shimmer or add more pigment for a stronger, more saturated Paris green effect.

Suggested Projects

• Rich green epoxy pours: Use Paris Green on its own for bold resin art, coasters, trays, and decorative accents.
• Botanical river tables: Pair Paris Green with walnut, white oak, ash, olive wood, or live edge slabs for a rich green epoxy river with natural contrast.
• Coasters and sample pours: Use small silicone molds to test Paris Green, compare pigment amounts, and make finished coaster-style projects.
• Emerald and jewel-tone projects: Use Paris Green with black pearl, gold, bronze, white pearl, or clear epoxy for richer decorative resin effects.
• Epoxy inlays and void fills: Add green shimmer to cracks, voids, carved details, logos, and decorative woodworking accents.
• Custom pigment blends: Mix Paris Green with blue, Caribbean blue, white pearl, black pearl, gold, bronze, or olive green pigments to create custom emerald, jade, teal-green, forest, and botanical effects.

How Much Pigment Should You Use?

A good starting point for Paris Green mica powder is approximately 1/8 teaspoon per 1 litre of epoxy for a medium level of transparency. You can adjust from there depending on the colour strength, opacity, shimmer, and final effect you want.

For smaller batches, start with a small amount, mix thoroughly, and add more gradually. Green pigments can look different depending on lighting, background colour, epoxy depth, wood tone, and the amount used, so testing a sample is recommended before committing to a larger project.
