Handmade in small batches with rich, organic blacks to achieve intense drawing tones and values, Euro Blend™ Charcoal is a creamy, rich, premium charcoal drawing formula that can be used alone, or in combination with other charcoal, graphite, pastels, or mixed media. Euro Blend™ Charcoal pencils can also be used for quick layouts in oil painting.
All Euro Blend™ Charcoal pencils are made in the USA using the highest-quality sustained-yield cedar to ensure smooth sharpening and strength.
The Elite grande has a bigger core than the PRIMO euro blend charcoal pencils. Its hardness degree is 3B.
