Sennelier 40 Half Pastel Portrait Boxed Set

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Sennelier's Extra-Soft Pastels were created over a period of three years at the turn of the 20th century and the result was the creation of one of the largest chromatic range of pastels. These pastels are comfortable to hold and allow for large areas to be covered with a lush, luxurious color. Each pastel is composed of high quality pure pigment and a natural transparent binder. For gradient shades, increasing amounts of mineral fines are added, ultimately tending towards white. The exceptional brightness is the result of the pigment and the natural mineral fines discovered by Sennelier in 1905 and that have been used ever since. The manufacturing process of the Sennelier cylindrical pastel does not compress the paste, and the pastel dries naturally in open air.

Sennelier Soft Pastels are water soluble and have an unparalleled pigment intensity. Even a gentle stroke delivers a solid, powerful line of brilliant color. 100% pure pigment, meaning no clay, binders or fillers have been added. Sennelier Soft Pastels offer incredible depth and luminosity and are lightfast to hold color for centuries.

This Sennelier Soft Pastel is packaged in a sturdy cardboard box with snug fitting foam to protect each stick.
