Colours may vary. The smooth finish of these handmade pastels and the unique colour formulations result in a truly lovely soft pastel. Gently hand-rolled and air-dried each stick is as much an organic sculpture as it is a tool. Look closely at a stick and you may see the fine lines and fingerprints imparted by the pastels creator. Each pastel takes on the tapered shape of the maker s palms. The use of only pure pigments in a cycle of related hues instead of adding black or white creates vibrant colours not muddied by the blending common in conventional pastels. The pastels use a little binder as possible making them very soft and smooth. We particularly love the look of the rectangular tablets of pastel. Manet is the only make we carry that has this shape. Using a similar formulation the hard pastels from Manet are square make less dust and are usually used for drawing.
