Faber-Castell Pitt Pastel Pencils 60-Piece Metal Tin craft painting

60 Pitt Pastel Pencils in Metal Tin

This set supplies sixty pigment-rich pastel pencils for artists who need precise detail work. The wax-free and oil-free cores allow clean layering and fine lines without unwanted residue. They suit illustrators and fine-art students building controlled pastel compositions. The metal tin keeps the full range organised and protected.

Check pigment needs and fixing workflow

Verify that your projects benefit from high-pigment, dry pastel cores rather than wax-based or oil-based alternatives. The pencils smudge easily for colour transitions, so plan for light fixing to lock layers without dulling vibrancy. Ensure your paper surface accepts dry pastel and minimal fixative. Confirm the 60-colour assortment covers the palette you require.

Rigid tin protects points daily

The 7-1/4x12-1/2x1 inch metal tin shields pencil tips from breakage during transport and studio storage. Its rigid structure prevents crushing that soft pastel sticks often suffer in soft cases. The conformance to ASTM D4236 confirms evaluated material safety for regular handling. The compact footprint fits standard drawers and travel bags.
