Artists find the sandy light brown of Unbleached Titanium appealing. Similar to Naples Yellow, it proves highly versatile as a mixing colour, often serving as a "softer" alternative to pure Titanium White. This is particularly useful for lightening earthy tones in landscapes and human skin colours. Boasting high opacity and unwavering permanence, Unbleached Titanium stands as a reliable choice for artists seeking a nuanced and enduring palette.

Contrary to a prevalent myth suggesting that Unbleached Titanium represents Titanium White before the removal of brownish impurities, the actual genesis of this colour is a fascinating story. In an incident during the 1960s, Bocour, a prominent paint manufacturer in New York, inadvertently contaminated a batch of Titanium White with umber or ochre. The resulting colour, reaching the shelves and prompting complaints, became the starting point for the unique shade known as Unbleached Titanium.
