Faber-Castell Pitt Pastel Pencils

Faber-Castell Pitt Pastel Pencils are highly-pigmented and wax & oil-free, offering artists the characteristic texture of pastels with the ease and control of a pencil. Drawings can be wiped just as with pastel crayons, so need to be fixed afterwards. Faber-Castell Pitt Pastel Pencils are highly light-fast and do not change colour appreciably when fixed. The compact pastel lead is perfect for hobby painters and professional artists, because it produces plenty of colour without being used up too fast.
