However, Catherine suggested a carbon pigment and this is also

carbon pigment in it--Maimeri Carbon Black pbk7.
I'm sorry; this last sentence is not a factual statement, if read
to mean that Maimeri "carbon black" is the only watercolor paint
containing a carbon black pigment. Lamp black (Pb6, Carbon black
(Pb7), Charcoal black (PB8), and Ivory black (Pb9) are all carbon
blacks.
Ooops, slight correction, somehow all those black pigments got the k
left out of their number. It should be PBk6, PBk7, etc.
