The world's most popular soft pastel, Rembrandt Pastels possess unsurpassed glow, purity, and intensity.
Made from the best quality, finely ground pure pigments in an extra-fine Kaolin clay binder, the result is a velvety smooth softness in every color.
Each rich color is thoroughly blended and uniform from end to end.
Containing no hard bits or sharp edges, Rembrandt Pastels avoid shiny spots or scratches during application.
Hand-checked throughout production, Rembrandt Pastels ensure artists the consistency in texture, color, and working qualities that they have come to depend on.
Each round Rembrandt Pastel stick features a transparent label printed with valuable information for the artist: the color name and number, the number suffix indicating whether it is a pure tone (.5), a shade (.3), or a tint (.7, .8, .9), and the lightfastness rating.
Lightfastness is especially important when using pastels, as they are practically pure pigment and very susceptible to light.
About 70 percent of the Rembrandt Pastel line has the highest possible degree of lightfastness.
These soft round pastels are sold individually.
