Sennelier 80 Assorted Half Stick Soft Pastels – Introductory Set

Sennelier Extra Soft Pastels were first made by Gustave Sennelier for Edgar Degas in 1900, and they were subsequently used by Cézanne, Gauguin, Monet and Modigliani.

Now as then, they are given the very best treatment—they’re hand-formed from the highest-quality pure pigment and the finest chalk with a natural transparent binder, and air-dried in moulds rather than compressed. This results in a wonderfully soft, outstandingly bright, lightfast and water-soluble soft pastel.

They come well-protected in foam-lined, sturdy cardboard boxes. Sennelier Soft Pastel Half-Stick Sets mean you can sample a wider variety of colours.
