Conte a’ Paris Sketching Carre Crayons are 6 mm x 6 mm x 63 mm pastel sticks. They consist of a range of 14 colours.

Carré Crayons give accurate and energetic strokes when the edges of the sticks are used. You can also colour areas by using the flat of the crayon to create the values. The greater the pressure while applying the colour, the denser the colour that is obtained.

The Skething Carres are manufactured using natural pigments, clay (kaolin) and a binder (cellulose ether). The Carres are extruded, dried & baked to arrive at the finished product. The degrees in White & Black are obtained by the extent of baking.

The range is made up of 14 colours, including the popular sanguine colours, Grey and Bistre, as well as three grades of white and black to complete the range.
