Working with Schmincke’s nest extra-soft pastels leads you back to the origin of colour and is a real painting experience rather than simple drawing.
They contain only the purest medium ne ground artists’ pigments, which are in the highest possible concentration. Contrastingly, the binding agent content, is kept to a mini- mum, which ensures a stable compound. In order to guarantee the highest quality it is necessary to manufacture Schmincke pastels using special recipes which avoid the use of machinery during manufacture.
“Worm extruders” form the pre-kneaded dough into round skeins, which are then detached by hand and cut in a wire- strung frame. The damp sticks have to dry for around eight days before they can be labelled and packed by hand.
