Brustro Compressed Carre Charcoal Sticks 5 Black + 1 White

Square charcoal sticks built for both broad strokes and sharp edges.

• Set of 6 compressed carre (square) charcoal sticks: 5 black, 1 white
• Square profile gives a flat edge for wide coverage and a corner for fine lines
• Compressed formula lays down deep, consistent black tone with minimal pressure
• The white stick lifts highlights straight onto grey or dark toned paper
• Blends smoothly with a finger, tissue or blending stump
• Suited to portrait studies, still life shading and expressive figure sketches

The square shape on these charcoal sticks is what sets them apart from round sticks or pencils: turn the flat side down to block in a whole shadow in seconds, or work on an edge for a clean, controlled line.

With five black sticks for depth and one white stick for highlights, this set covers the full tonal range most charcoal sketches need without reaching for a second product.
