German-made, Stabilo Carbothello Pastel Pencils are world-famous for their quality, high pigmentation with excellent lightfastness, and being partially water-soluble, offering the artist a wider range of use. The opaque, chalk-pastel colours blend beautifully and erase easily. They can be dry-blended or smudged with either the fingertips or a blending stump to create a variety of artistic effects. And due to their high pigmentation, dramatic results can be achieved on dark backgrounds and delicate papers.

Partially water-soluble, the pigments can also be worked with brush and water, the contours remaining visible. The white pastel pencil is especially ideal to lighten or highlight areas or outlines.  The diameter of the lead is large and semi-soft but can be sharpened to a fine point for details and lettering.

Product features:
