Camel Compressed Charcoal Stick

Get deep, velvety blacks and smooth blending with the Camel Compressed Charcoal Stick, a sketching essential from Kokuyo Camlin.

• Made from high-quality compressed charcoal for a smooth, consistent lay-down
• 100% vegan formulation, cruelty-free and craft-room safe
• Delivers a rich, dark discharge ideal for bold tonal contrast

This charcoal stick is built for expressive, confident mark-making, whether you're blocking in shadows on a portrait or building texture in a still life. Being compressed rather than loosely bound like vine charcoal, it holds its point longer, resists crumbling, and lays down a denser, darker mark for bold value studies.

Keep it in your kit alongside paper stumps and a fixative spray to lock in your finished sketches, and let the deep, matte black do the heavy lifting in your next charcoal study.
