The main constituent of Holkham Linseed Paints, apart from linseed oil, is Titanium Dioxide. This constituent is infinitely safer to use than lead. Lead paint’s use is restricted in this country to only Grade I and II* buildings, which only make up 7% of the listed buildings in the country. Even then you need to apply for a special licence from English Heritage to use it.
