Conte Pastel Pencil 039 Garnet Red

The Conte Pastel Pencils range is excellent for toning. Rich in pigment, they are available in 48 colours. Larger than most other pastel pencil, they have a very fine, smooth lead. Suitable for all coloured papers, with the intense opaqueness more evident when used on darker coloured paper. Cased in a durable hard wood, the Conte Pastel Pencils are easily sharpened to a point for fine detailed work but can be laid down heavily and create effective blocks of colour.
