This set of 36 sticks from Unison contains a selection of landscape-themed hand-rolled soft pastels.

Unison pastels are the creation of artist John Hersey. From a converted coach house in Northumberland, England, John and a small band of artisans lovingly make Unison pastels by hand, cutting no corners. They make small batches of 100 to 200 pastels at a time and each stick is hand-rolled and allowed to air dry. This produces a soft pastel which embraces the tooth of your drawing paper and leaves great results. There is a richness, a smoothness and an intensity that is unique to Unison.

John Hersey developed Unison's colour scheme in unified cycles of 18 colours. He observed from nature that a single colour takes on endless variations of hue depending on the quality of light that strikes it. After 15 years of experimentation, his pastels reflect the true nature of colour.

Pastels measure approximately 2-1/8 in long × 5/8 in diameter (54 mm × 16 mm). Sticks vary slightly due to the hand-making process.
