About Faber-Castell
Faber-Castell was established in 1761 by the cabinet maker Kaspar Faber, it is one of the oldest industrial companies in the world. The company is one of the world’s leading manufacturer of wood-cased pencils with a varied range of products for writing, drawing and creative design, as well as decorative cosmetics. Faber-Castell is renowned for its high quality, innovative products, commitment to tradition, and environmental awareness.
Lothar von Faber took over the family business in 1839. He is remembered, in particular, as a pioneer of the branded article who in creating his own brand name set a new standard. Today the eighth generation family member Count Anton-Wolfgang von Faber-Castell, who took over as head of the company in 1978, has been instrumental in new product development and the expansion of international activities. Count Faber-Castell takes delight in rediscovering products from the past and recreating them with timeless design and modern technology.

5.0 out of 5 stars Artist quality pastel pencils
Verified PurchaseFaber-Castell, 24 Pitt Pastel Pencil set - arrived on time. I bought this smaller set to try these pastel pencils out. I'm not an expert and have barely used pastel pencils. These are nice pencils to use with very good pigmentation, but I'm finding them a bit drier than I like, which makes them a bit chalky/dusty. I have built up several layers of colour tones and am finding that a lot of the colour is easily blown away or brushed away when blending. I'm not using a pastel specific paper pad, so that could have something to do with it; though the pad I’m using is for multi-media, including pastels. Despite the pastels being drier than I had hoped, they aren’t so hard as to make holes in the paper. If I was using proper pastel paper, with more grip/texture, I think these pastels would be perfect.
Building layers of colour with these pencils is very easy because of the high colour pigmentation and they blend beautifully. I also like that you can wet the colours and literally paint with them. In some areas, I've applied the colours to the paper first, then ‘painted’ over them with water.
Another reviewer suggested that there are enough colours in this set to build up skin tones. I have to disagree. I have been using every colour in this set of 24 colours, but there is only one bright red and the purple is a bit too light for the picture I'm practicing on. There are two browns in the set - a dark and medium, an ochre and a pale pink. I don’t find there are enough earth/skin tones and would prefer a a few more mid-tone colours. - Consequently, I have ordered another set of 60 pastel pencils (different brand) as I can’t achieve the variety of colour and depth of shading I'm aiming for, which is why I'm posting a half finished piece. I've also resorted to using some soft pastel sticks for the background and clothes from another set and brand.
I still think this set is worth buying and trying. These Faber-Castell Pitt pastel pencils are good student and professional artist quality.
Edit: Second image using mixed brand combined pastel pencils

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely professional quality, but packaging was worse
Verified PurchaseThe packaging was very bad, they didn't even give a bubble wrap.
But when it comes to the product, it's actually one of the top 3 of pastel pencils. The leads are of perfect hardness, the colors are very vibrant, they lay down on the paper very well, the box is quite dented but protects the pencils well. It's quite expensive for beginners but it's worth the money.
