When do you need a pastel pencil?
The Faber-Castell PITT PASTEL pastel pencil has been specially developed for artists working on fine and filigree drawings. You use this type of pencil when you want to combine pastel techniques with the precision of a regular coloured pencil. The sepia dark shade is ideal for making sketches, portraits and studies where you need natural, warm brown tones.

Why choose this 3.8 mm lead diameter?
With a lead diameter of 3.8 mm, this pencil offers the perfect balance between coverage and control. You can colour in broad areas as well as work out precise details. The 176 mm length ensures a comfortable grip during longer drawing sessions. These dimensions make the pencil suitable for various drawing techniques within a single work.

Wax- and oil-free composition
The main advantage of this PITT PASTEL pencil is its wax- and oil-free formula. This means you can easily combine it with other techniques such as watercolour or acrylic, without encountering repulsion or stains. The high lightfastness ensures that your artworks retain their original colour for a long time, even with prolonged exposure to light.

Practical sharpening tips
You can sharpen this pencil with both a regular pencil sharpener and a special craft knife. For fine details, use a pencil sharpener, while with a craft knife you can create different tip shapes for various effects. Take care to sharpen gently, as the soft pastel core can otherwise break.
