A set of 8 high-quality beeswax pastels in an elegant and durable metal box.
The colour selection is based on Goethe’s colour wheel and includes carmine, vermillion, orange, cadmium yellow, lemon yellow, green, ultramarine and red-violet.
Stockmar pastels stimulate the artists every sense. With a size of 83 by 12 mm suitable for small hands, they have a smooth feeling while drawing, leaving an intense bright mark with a pleasantly light aroma of beeswax to create unforgettable childhood moments.
They come in a compact metal box that will keep the pastels safe for years and perfectly fits into artists and outdoor packs.
The non-toxic combination of beeswax, paraffin, stearin and natural pigments doesn’t contain lead like most children’s pastels on the market making it completely safe for little artists.
This makes the brand suitable for students in environmentally friendly art schools like Montessori and Waldorf.
Stockmar pastels can be used for layering and melting.
Their wax content gives them transparency and makes it easy to create water-colour effects.
The box also contains a small sharp spatula for drawing by scratching and cleaning the pastels from colour particles.
These pastels don’t leave residue on surfaces after touching children’s fingertips, even if the protective paper cover falls off if an accident does occur they can easily be washed and cleaned.
Stockmar is a German company with a century-long history that started as a manufacturer of wax candles and bee products.
