Zecchi is an art shop in Florence, Tuscany (Firenze in Italian) that has been there for generations. They have their own pigments and make their own oil paints and watercolors. It’s the only place where they sell it, as well as artisanal sketchbooks and papers… They are as well the suppliers of art restorers of renaissance work in Italy. They are known for their unique ultramarine, Naples yellow and vermillion pigments.
Williamsburg is a mixed colour to replicate an earlier one. Naple's yellow comes in different shades a closely held production secret enabled quite bright versions (though not as bright as cadmium) The lack of this hidden process produced more ochre like colours which was what were available to most makers back in the day. The brighter pigment versions are now available, but most paint makers don't use them, possibly due to their expense and toxic nature. To further complicate matters one of the modern replacements (PBr24) also contains antimony and is sometimes sold as Antimony yellow, but I only ever seen this modern pigment in more orange shades of yellow.
Try slowly mixing with ivory black. One of the special characteristics of genuine naples is that, though it is very bright, mixtures into black are a fairly soft green. Same i feel with the PBr24 based "naples yellows". Old Holland Naples yellow extra and Michael Hardings Naples Yellow (the non genuine version) are both PBr24 Schmincke does a few yellows with PBr24 that reach this brightness.
Old Holland. Even though they're not my top favorite for use, they are THICK and have an extremely high pigment ratio according to every artist I've met. The other high-end brands with high pigments tend to be more buttery smooth (which is what I prefer) and the brands that are THICK without mediums tend to be, well, crap. Winton was like trying to paint with clay.

There are various shades of Naples Yellow. The same applies to Lead Tin Yellow.

Can you try
Holbein aritst oil color (and compare to vernet you got)
Genuine naples yellow is a lead based paint.
Edit: yellow antimony is naples yellow.
Cally..in your opinion, overall colors..what brand is the thickest with most pigment content?

@CallyKariShokka t.y. cally.
Naples yellow genuine is a very bright yellow. It is also very dangerous if you consume it at all. Fee-ren-zay
4000 yen is equivalent. You didnt get ripped
BTW, I'm not Italian, but I'm pretty sure it's pronounced "Zeekee".
