Orcein, also called archil, orchil, lacmus and C.I. Natural Red 28 - CICN 758600, is any dye extracted from several species of lichen, commonly known as "orchella weeds", found in various parts of the world.

In traditional dye-making methods, urine was used as the ammonia source. If the conversion is carried out in the presence of potassium carbonate,
