Sennelier Half Pastels Paris Collection 120pcSennelier Soft Pastels are one of the world’s largest chromatic pastel ranges and consist of high quality pure pigment finely grounded with a natural binder. The high quality composition of Sennelier’s pastels is the result of a perfect balance between binder and pigment, bueing unparalleled for their pigment intensity. For gradient shades, increasing amounts of mineral fines are added, ultimately tending towards white. The exceptional brightness is the result of the pigment and of the natural mineral fines discovered by Sennelier in 1905 and that have been used ever since.The manufacturing process of the Sennelier cylindrical pastel does not compress the paste and the pastel dries naturally in open air. The life span of a piece of work is guaranteed by the quality of the pastel, but also by the quality of the substrate. If a lot of overlapping is performed, it is preferable to fix between layers. Avoid, however, fixing the final layer too heavily, as the original tones will be lost.This Paris Collection set contains a brilliant selection of 120 Sennelier Half Stick Soft Pastels, perfect for a variety of palettes and applications. The Half Stick Pastel size have the same pigment and binder composition as the full sticks but are shorter and fatter and are valued for being sturdy and able to withstand extensive handling and travelling as well as for being a more economical way of purchasing a wide variety of colours.The pastels in this box are kept secure by the foam lining within the box.
