Unison Pastels are made in Northumberland and contain only pure pigments in a cycle of related hues, instead of adding white or black to the colours. The result is intense, vibrant colour not muddied by the blending of colours.

Unison's pastels contain very little binder, making them truly soft and smooth. They are mixed to meticulous recipes and are based on traditional pigments such as cadmiums, cobalts and natural and synthetic earths.

Pastels measure approximately 3" long × 6/8" diameter (75 mm × 20mm). Sticks vary slightly due to the hand-making process.

They contain only the purest medium fine ground artists' pigments, which are in the highest possible concentration. Contrastingly, the binding agent content, is kept to a minimum, 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 wirestrung frame. The damp sticks have to dry for around eight days before they can be labelled and packed by hand. This is a costly and time consuming process, however it is the only way Schmincke can guarantee homogenous quality and smoothness in all the production cycles.

Schmincke soft pastels contain the finest artists' pigments in the highest concentration using a minimum of binders. The extreme softness and colour strength of Schmincke pastels demand a very traditional forming process; the Pastels are so soft they must be labelled individually, by hand!

The full Schmincke pastel colour range includes 400 tones classified in 75 colour rows plus a range of neutral greys, extra dark colours, pearl lustre and metallic colours. Each of the 75 colour rows contain five pastels which are all variations on a pigment colour: one pure pigment pastel, one with added black, and three with increasing amounts of white added to lighten the colour. This gives a great colour spectrum and allows you to work with total freedom, knowing you have the right pastel for the job.

This set contains the complete assortment of 400 pastels. The pastels are arranged by colour in four removable wooden trays. These trays slot into the splendid presentation case, which is made of stained walnut. This case would make a stunning gift for any pastel artist.
