Sennelier : Soft Pastel : Test Set

The Sennelier soft pastel is a unique tool for pastel artists who have a passion for tradition and quality. This collection is the largest selection of chromatic pastel spectrum pastels on the market. These pastels are still made according to traditional methods. Made from an extremely pure, selected pigment and a natural binder, the smoothness and velvety quality of the pastels are a result of a perfect balance between these two materials. The exceptional luminosity of these pastels is a result of the naturally occurring minerals discovered by Sennelier in 1905 from the Champagne region of France, and these minerals are still used to this day to add hue and create the unique colour palette this range has to offer. The original purity of the pigments, whose smoothness varies according to their individual chemical composition can sometimes result in variations in softness.
