Many pastel artists use them for the drawing and underpainting stages of a picture and for adding detail over softer pastels, while others enjoy them as a clean, controllable medium in their own right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe square shape means you can use a corner for fine marks, an edge for lines and the flat side for wide areas of colour. Sets come in sturdy cardboard boxes, with assortments of 12, 36 and 72 colours, compact sets of eight or twelve in brown or grey tones, and themed selections for portraits and landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a sharpening board to restore a crisp edge and a Pastel Carré holder to use short pieces down to the end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare, firm pastel sticks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharp edges for lines and detail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAssorted sets of 12, 36 and 72 colours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrown and grey tone sets of 8 and 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePortrait and landscape selections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Austria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCretacolor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eRange\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCretacolor Pastel Carré Sets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePacked dimensions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e323 x 269 x 20 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePacked weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e700 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCountry of origin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAustria\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eProduct code\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCR-480-72\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Cretacolor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51411458621768,"sku":"CR-480-72","price":137.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/5114\/5032\/files\/CR-480-72.jpg?v=1793038083","url":"https:\/\/shop.penandpaper.co.uk\/products\/cretacolor-pastel-carre-c-board-set-of-72-assorted","provider":"The Pen and Paper Stationery Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
