edit 1/20/26: I reached out to Fuumuui about the info regarding cadmium and cobalt on the pan wrappers and they reached out to the chemists at the factory where it is manufactured and they said the paint doesn't contain those chemicals.
I am pretty sure I have reviewed this exact same paint in sets from Lightwish, Art Whale, Doodlehog (old 36 set) Artsy, Artify, and maybe even Altenew (24 pan set), and I like it but I want to let you know so you don't buy the same paint if you don't want to.
Today we are looking at the wood box watercolor halfpan set from Fuumuui, you can see the 12 and 24-set here on Amazon: amzn.to/4qp9tRu (affiliate link)
or the Fuumuui website fuumuui.com/collections/watercolor-paint-set/products/fuumuui-watercolor-paint-set-12-watercolor-paints-with-dual-tip-travel-watercolor-brushes-wooden-palette-art-supplies-for-painting-travel-watercolor-set-amateur-hobbyists

Pros:
Price
Beautiful wood box
Comes with a dual-end brush with a graphite tip
Nice color selection
*Pigment info included
Swatch card included
Cons:
I question the accuracy of the pigment info because the box is labeled non-toxic but there are cobalt and cadmium paints listed on the paint wrappers. These should have a CL label and Prop 65 warning on them, and at least one US state bans cadmium products, so omitting this info is a problem if the wrapper are accurate. They are the same pigment numbers as on other Superior sets, and I think they may be wrong, or the paint is coming into the US with non-compliant labels. I reached out the Fuumuui for clarification but have not had a response. I would not consider these non-toxic or give them to children to be safe.
