Caran d'Ache Neocolor I Wax Pastels Tin of 40

Caran d'Ache Neocolor I is a set of forty water-resistant wax pastels from the celebrated Swiss art house, prized for their intense, opaque colour and buttery, blendable feel. Unlike the water-soluble Neocolor II, these classic oil-wax crayons stay put once applied, making them ideal for permanent drawing, layering, and wax-resist techniques under watercolour or ink. The highly pigmented sticks glide smoothly across paper, wood, glass, metal, and more, holding bright, lightfast colour that resists fading. Artists reach for them for bold mark-making, sgraffito, and mixed-media work where richness and permanence matter.

Product Features:

• Forty water-resistant oil-wax pastels in intense, opaque, blendable colour.
• Stay put once applied, ideal for permanent drawing and wax-resist techniques.
• Glide smoothly on paper, wood, glass, and metal with bright, lightfast colour.
• Presented in a reusable metal tin, non-toxic, from a celebrated Swiss maker.

How to Use:

Draw directly onto your surface, layering and blending as you go. Use them under a watercolour wash for a resist effect, or scratch back layers for sgraffito detail.
