## Overview

Conte à Paris Pastel Pencils feature a robust 5mm lead diameter, offering artists superior control and a unique tactile experience. Designed as the perfect complement to soft pastels, their slightly harder core allows for detailed work on small to medium formats without dulling colors. This set includes 12 assorted vibrant shades, ideal for professionals seeking precision and vividness in their mixed media creations.

## Description

The exceptional diameter of the Conte a Paris pastel pencil (5 mm) lead gives genuine freedom of creation and has an unrivalled feel. The pastel is perfect pencil companion to soft pastel because its lead is slightly harder with less pigment. It is preferable to Conte soft pastels and crayons when details is required for small and medium sized formats. In contrast with soft pastels, pastel pencil should not be added in successive layers of colors, but used as pure colors laid out in patchwork fashion side by side (so as not to dull the shades). This blister carded item contains 12 assorted colors.

Review: Fast and worth it! - Professional art materials! Well made and packaged. Pure pigments make for fantastic artwork!
Review: Conte pastels - I am an artist. I absolutely love these pastels . I have professional grade soft pastels. But, I bought these because of the harder core and hoped the conte could be used for shading with my other other softer pastels. I also bought the conte pencil sharpener . Works well. The only complaint I have is with the desertcart packing. These pastels should be bubble wrapped. Once the core is broken the pencil is useless. Conte pencils work well with mixed medium.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quite beautiful
*by L***R on January 3, 2026*

These are beautiful, quality products. Thick, luscious core deposits bright pigment. Simply beautiful. My only complaint is around the confusing color naming. I bought the set of 48 but really got only 47 (one color was repeated). Not a real biggie per se maybe since I can buy the individual pencils too. The trick comes in trying to determine what was missing. #39 Red Garnet was repeated, and after an HOUR searching online I determined that missing was probably #19 Purple. They do say “assorted colors” so maybe not every set is identical. Pencils are identified only by number on the pencil, though the painted wood seems to reflect the inner pigment accurately. Some numbers are clearly permanently retired (no sign anywhere of #23, 25, 35, 36, 45) but this is probably normal as we have 48 colors in theory but some are labeled #49, 50, 51, 53, 54, 55). So that explains the absence of some numbers and the appearance of others. The names DO exist online but they can be vague, and some I completely disagree with. But they’re just names after all. I do recommend these pencils. A quality product from a reputable brand. I’m not a big hard pastel guy but wanted to buy the best I could afford.
