Caran d'Ache Pastel Pencil Set - 20 colors

Caran d'Ache Pastel Pencils feature high-quality, durable 4.7 mm leads with unparalleled coverage. This allows for smooth application and easy blendability. The unique texture adheres well to various surfaces, ensuring exceptional lightfastness and long-lasting vibrancy. We recommend sharpening with a cutter for best results.

The rounded, hexagonal shape provides a comfortable grip and is neatly finished with a clear varnish. As an added bonus, the matte-colored cap at the end of each pencil allows for quick and easy color identification.

This assortment of 20 colors contains the essential colors for more elaborate work with a carefully selected range of warm and cold shades. Our 20-colour set is an ideal introduction to dry pastels.
