Vine black was traditionally a carbon black pigment made by charring grape vines and twigs.  Our black iron oxide reproduces faithfully the original colour of the true vine black.
 
Vine black is a warm, brownish-black hue, and is not as dense or opaque as our other black pigments.  I it an intense black with bluish tint when mixed with a clear binder. It is a deep grey mixed with a white binder.
 
This pigment is 100% natural. Vine black is non-toxic and safe for your health and the environment.

These renderings can be similar for any white base mixed with this pigment. However, differences will be possible for the use of paints more or less loaded with titanium dioxide (white pigment), which will give a final color more or less light. 
If you want to lighten a pigment, before coloring a transparent binder (linseed oil, wax, acryling binder, caparol, flour, etc), you can mix it with blanc Tiona 595 (white Tiona).
