Introducing the New Caran d’Ache Neoart 6901 Wax Oil Pastels: A Groundbreaking Innovation in Fine Art Materials

 

Caran d’Ache, a name synonymous with Swiss-made quality, is thrilled to announce the launch of the Neoart 6901 Pastels, a revolutionary product that is set to redefine the way artists approach pastel work. These pastels combine the best of both worlds, merging wax and oil formulations to create an exceptional medium that offers unrivalled lightfastness and vibrant, enduring colour.

The Neoart 6901 Pastels are the first-ever pastels to be fully lightfast, meeting the rigorous ASTM D-6901 standard. This ensures a 100% lightfastness for up to an impressive 100 years, making them the perfect choice for artists who prioritise longevity and colour preservation in their works. This innovation marks a significant leap forward for artists seeking materials that can stand the test of time, both in terms of colour intensity and durability.

 

Part of the Caran d’Ache Expert Range, the Neoart 6901 Pastels reflect the brand’s unwavering commitment to quality and craftsmanship.

 

Made in Geneva, each pastel is created with the precision and excellence Caran d’Ache is known for, offering exceptional colour payoff and consistency. These pastels are designed to deliver intense, vivid hues with every stroke, ensuring that your artwork remains brilliant for decades to come.

The Neoart 6901 Pastels come in 48 rich, highly-pigmented colours, offering a wide spectrum of shades that allow for both subtle gradations and bold, striking contrasts. These pastels are carefully crafted from a wax and oil blended formula. The wax component provides a smooth, silky texture, while the oil base ensures depth and vibrancy, as a result, these pastels glide effortlessly across the paper or canvas, allowing artists to layer and blend with ease- without worrying about crumbling or dusting.

The versatility of the Neoart 6901 Pastels is another standout feature. These pastels adhere seamlessly to a wide range of surfaces, including paper, cardboard, canvas, glass, and wood, offering endless creative possibilities. Their octagonal shape provides exacting control, making it easier to create fine details and smooth transitions, while the non-dirtying formula ensures a clean and consistent application every time.

Available in three distinct sets, the Neoart 6901 Pastels cater to a wide variety of artistic needs. You can opt for the 12-colour set, which includes essential shades for daily use, the 24-colour set, ideal for florals, still life, and landscape paintings, or the complete 48-colour set, perfect for creating everything from portraits to abstract compositions. For artists looking to build their own custom collection, all 48 shades are also available individually.

Whether you’re a professional artist, an art student, or a passionate hobbyist, the Neoart 6901 Pastels offer the perfect combination of quality, performance, and endurance. Elevate your work with this groundbreaking innovation from Caran d’Ache and discover the extraordinary possibilities that await with these next-generation pastels.
