Faber-Castell PITT Pastel Pencil Venetian Red

Enjoy pastel techniques and versatility without dirty hands and coloured dust.

Faber-Castell PITT Pastel Pencils are durable wood-cased pencils that contain a high level of pigment. They are wax and oil free, which makes them perfectly suited for fine details and elaborated work in pastels.

PITT Pastel Pencils, using Faber-Castell’s secure SV bonding process, have superior pencil strength to other brands. Their unique cellulose binder allows for smooth colour laydown and excellent colour opacity. PITT pencils work great with other brands of soft pastels and pencil crayons too!

They can be easily smudged or blended to create fine colour transitions and perfectly complement the pastel crayons. Only minimal fixing is required, ensuring that the pastel drawings retain their vividness of colour.

Drawings done with pastels must be fixed with a fixative to prevent smudging, otherwise the pigments fall off the paper.
