Conté Crayons

Invented in France in 1795 by Nicolas-Jacques Conté especially for drawing and sketching, Conté Crayons are made from a blend of natural pigments, kaolin clay, and graphite. The Conté crayon has been used by many of the world’s greatest artists, including Picasso, Delacroix, and Degas. The rich, vivid colors of Conté Crayons mix together nicely, and a range of effects can be consistently produced. They are well suited for use on newsprint, bristol, toned paper or heavily grained surfaces. Their rich opacity makes them ideal for work on darker papers and their quality ensures the longevity of drawings. Conté crayons are waxier and much firmer than soft pastels, so they produce little dust and are easy to control. Sharpen Conté Crayons to a chisel tip with a sanding pad for detailed work or drag them flat on their sides for various shading techniques on large areas. The unique shape allows the sticks to be broken for easier use. Sticks are 2½" long × ¼" square (63 mm x 6 mm). Each box contains 2 or 12 crayons of one color, except for the color sets.

Conté Large Crayons

These extra wide crayons allow for big, bold strokes and easy coverage of large areas. Packages contain two sticks each in four traditional color combinations.

Caran d'Ache Grafcube Graphite Sticks

Caran d'Ache has drawn on its expertise and explored the deepest graphite mines to search out the infinite color nuances of carbon. The result is the Graphite Line, an original concept dedicated to graphite that gives artists the opportunity to compose their own graphite range and explore all the shades of black. An integral part of this line are the Grafcube graphite sticks. Grafcube graphite sticks have a high concentration of graphite and a unique shape that allows lines that are rough and thick, fine, or extra-fine . They come in 2 sizes and 3 degrees of hardness. Grafcubes can be used flat or across their entire length.
