For over a century, the name Sennelier has been synonymous with the finest artist materials to come out of Paris. Founded in 1887 on the Quai Voltaire — steps from the Louvre — Sennelier became the colour house of choice for Cézanne, Gauguin, and Picasso. Their honey-based watercolours, richly pigmented acrylics, and luminous inks have graced studios and sketchbooks around the world ever since.
It is with genuine sadness that we announce we are no longer able to source Sennelier products through our distributor. Effective immediately, our current stock is the last we will carry.
What This Means for You
If Sennelier has been part of your practice — whether you've relied on l'Aquarelle for plein air watercolour, the Abstract Acrylic range for studio work, or the Abstract Acrylic Inks for illustration and mixed media — now is the time to stock up. Once our shelves are clear, we will not be able to reorder.
We've gathered everything we have left into our Last Chance — Sennelier collection, where you'll find the full remaining range at a clearance discount. No reorders. While supplies last.
A Brand Worth Remembering
What made Sennelier special wasn't just the quality — it was the philosophy. Every product was formulated with the working artist in mind, using the finest raw materials and time-honoured techniques. The honey binder in l'Aquarelle. The resealable pouch format of the Abstract Acrylics. The extraordinary pigment load across every range. These weren't accidents — they were the result of generations of expertise and genuine love for the craft.
We are proud to have carried Sennelier at King's Framing & Art Gallery, and we're grateful to every customer who discovered or deepened their practice through these remarkable materials.

Au revoir, Sennelier. It's been a privilege.
