Stabilo CarbOthello - the pastel chalk pencil for artists, art students, and hobby creatives. Its wonderfully dry and dusty stroke resembles that of wood or charcoal. It can be blended and smudged when dry, and partially blended with water - the outlines remain visible. The CarbOthello also looks brilliant on dark backgrounds and delicate paper. The high pigment content ensures strong luminosity and opacity, as well as excellent lightfastness and color brilliance.
