By
Published on
Verditer was the cheap stand-in for azurite, a synthetic copper carbonate that English silver refiners made as a byproduct and decorators brushed onto walls and wallpaper in the 1600s and 1700s. When refiners switched from nitric to sulfuric acid late in the 18th century, the good supply dried up. Verditer Blue color (#55aabb) captures that chalky, green-tinged copper blue.
