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