An intrachromospheruloid pigment and a process for producing the same: the intrachromospheruloid pigment consisting essentially of spheruloids of essentially transparent organic polymer material, preferably cross-linked to essential insolubility in any physical solvent, having primary particles of an average size not exceeding 4 microns in diameter which have embedded therein particulate pigment composition consisting essentially of organic color pigment material having primary particles of an average size not exceeding 0.2 micron in diameter. In the process for its production, the organic color pigment material is reduced to an average particle size of 0.2 micron or less, which is well below the normal pigmentary size range, and is then included in an emulsion polymerization of monomer material preferably comprising an effective quantity of cross-linking agent, and the polymerization is conducted to produce emulsion polymer of an average particle size not exceeding 4 microns in diameter, having embeded therein the still smaller organic color pigment particles.
