Old Penny is a warm chestnut brown mica powder with rich coppery undertones and a soft metallic glow, like a well-worn coin warmed by years of handling. Earthy, comforting, and quietly luxurious, this shade is inspired by antique pennies, polished wood, and autumn light catching on aged metal. It’s a timeless brown with depth and character, never flat, always full of soul.

Finely milled for smooth, even blending, Old Penny mixes beautifully into resin, eco-resin, polymer clay, mixed media, papercrafts, and candle making. Whether you’re creating rustic homewares, adding warmth to neutral palettes, or layering with golds, creams, and deep greens, this pigment brings a sense of heritage and grounded elegance to every piece.

Features:

  • 10g mica powder supplied in a handy lidded pot
  • Warm chestnut brown with coppery metallic undertones
  • Finely milled for smooth, even dispersion
  • Suitable for resin, eco-resin, polymer clay, mixed media, papercrafts, and candle making

Old Penny proves that the most beautiful tones are the ones that feel lived-in — rich, reliable, and endlessly

All Bloom pigments have excellent UV stability; they will not fade or alter under UV light - even if they have not been sealed with a protectant. 

Can be lightened or darkened by adding more or less.


Mica powder itself is a naturally occurring mineral and is widely recognised as non-toxic. While our Chameleon pigment powders are safe to handle and suitable for creative and craft applications, they are not certified as cosmetic grade. This means they have not been tested or approved to meet the specific regulatory standards required for use in cosmetic products intended for application on the skin, lips, or eyes.


At Create and Bloom, we are committed to sourcing and supplying mica powders as ethically and responsibly as possible. We work closely with trusted suppliers who share our values around transparency, fair working practices, and responsible production. While the mica industry is complex, we actively choose partners who strive to reduce environmental impact and support safer, more ethical supply chains. It’s an ongoing journey, and we continue to learn, question, and improve wherever we can, because beautiful colour should never come at the cost of people or the planet.
