What's more it can be sharpened to a very fine tip which make it ideal for detail. colors can be dry mixed and blended which makes coloring more fun and special. Safety Warning Please note: Not suitable for children under 36 months due to small parts.

Review: Top of the line pencils! - These are my first (and go-to) pastel pencils. I find them easily blendable, not too soft, and the variety of colors suitable for all of my pet & wildlife portraits. I'm a beginner, but I'm still learning, and I will highly recommend getting a Prismacolor handheld (2-slot) pencil sharpener, and possibly a sharpening block..because I learned that if you try these with an electric sharpener, they will eat half the pencil and turn it to dust, as well as me up the sharpener. Filing it with a craft knife didn't work for me either. You don't need a really really sharp point anyway, because with too much pressure they'll break every time. No matter what I do, I so still have maybe two colors out of the entire set that break frequently, but that is most likely due to the pigment used. In any case, drawing with these pencils still gives me nice, fine details I want. They work best on Pastelmat and velour paper, but I've also used them on Bristol and Fabriano Titziano paper which worked out fine. Any paper smoother than those will smear and not blend as well. Highly recommend these pastel pencils!
Review: My go-to pencil...Candy for the coloring addict - I did not know that chalk pencils existed until I read a review that mentioned them. I started searching and came up with this brand. I am so pleased that I found these on my first chalk pencil hunt. STABILLO CarbOthello Chalk Pastel Pencils s are super fun to work with. I am usually really pleased with the finished image, and I especially love using them for grayscale coloring. I initially purchased a 24 piece set, and I was so enthralled with that set that I wanted a larger selection of colors. They come in an easy to open hinged tin box. The pencils are cradled in two layers with thumb holds, in the top tray, for easy stacking/unstacking. They are numbered, but do not have color names. In this set you will find varying shades of the following: there is enough color variety to enable the colorist to do portraits, landscapes, animals, and most any kind of line drawings. 1 white 1 beige/sand (Good for skin tones) 10 browns (very light to very dark) 8 greens (bluish, lime to tree leaves, grass) 8 blues (baby, sky, dark, greenish etc.) 4 yellows (very pale to bright) 3 purplish, pinkish lavender (Sorry, but these three colors are a bit hard to define.) 3 oranges 3 grays 2 golds 1 black 1 red 2 reddish, pinkish, orangy 1 blush 1 paper blending stump 1 kneaded rubber eraser 1 pencil sharpener My descriptive color names may not be precise, but hopefully one can get a good idea of the colors included in the set. You can also see the colors in the pictures below. PROS: Easy to use Give nice potent colors Dry blend easily Sharpen easily Good coloring mileage...nice pastel hues Can be smudged with finger or paper tissue to get even coloring Erasable Smooth lay down CONS: Messy to use Create dust Not really good for precise/fine details Colors may not be as vivid as wax or oil based pencils Even after the colors are pretty well set, it is important to put a blank sheet of paper, tissue or whatever, under your coloring hand while finishing your picture. Otherwise, you may have slight color imprints on your skin. I always color a small section of my picture, blend the color(s) and remove the chalk dust before coloring another section. I have never had smudges on my finished colored image. My finished pictures have retained their color well; however, there is a preservative that can be applied for durability. My set arrived rather jumbled and with a few broken tips. The tin box was in a thin plastic envelope that allowed them to be tossed, thrown and mishandled throughout the delivery route. The tin box gives fairly good protection; however…….

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Premium Quality Pastel Pencil Set
*by V***P on February 2, 2026*

Beautiful and high quality set of pastel pencils. These pencils are cream of the crop in my opinion. They're easy to use, durable, and ultra-smooth when drawing with them. They are standard sized and function like a regular pencil. One of the things that makes this brand of pencil even more appealing to me is the fact I can replace them individually, because of some being used more than others. The case they came in is beautiful and precisely made. The sharpener and eraser are a nice bonus to the set. With respect to the price point of the set, I would say, in this case, you do get what you pay for.
