Pigment derived from cuttlefish (5)

I believe the answer is:

sepia

(Other definitions for sepia that I've seen before include "Sort of ink" , "Old drawing" , "Brown tone associated with old photographs" , "Colourant" , "Pigment obtained from cuttlefish ink" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
