GIRAULT HOW
Girault pastels are made of natural pigments that are traditionally used in fine arts.
Colors are created through the blending of pure pigments; pastels are made by mixing these pigments with white.
Special attention is paid to keeping the hardness of the sticks the same throughout the whole series
First, the pigments and the white are ground; then
water is added and the paste is mechanically wrung and molded into the
required shape before being manually cut at the needed length
The sticks are numbered and stamped and then left to dry.
Girault Pastels contain no heavy metal
