Over a decade ago,
in the hills of Northumberland, England, artist John Hersey began
hand-making his own pastels. Gently hand-rolled and air-dried, each stick
is as much an organic sculpture as it is a
tool. Look closely at a stick and you may see
the fine lines and fingerprints imparted by the pastels' creator.
Each pastel takes on the tapered shape of the bowl
of the maker's palms. Hersey's unique color formulations contain only
pure pigments in a cycle of related hues, instead of
adding white or black to the colors. The result is
intense, vibrant color application not muddied by the blending of
colors. The color range is sublime overall and at moments
astonishing. Unison's pastels contain very little binder, making them truly
soft and smooth. Pastels measure approximately 2-1/8" long × 5/8"
diameter (54 mm × 16 mm). Sticks vary slightly due
to the hand-making process. Gift Idea — A variety of
special combination Unison sets are available. See Unison Handmade Pastel
Sets for pictures and more detailed specifications of these sets.
No Minimum Order — Many of our pastel lines require
a minimum order of 6 pastels, however Unison pastels can
be ordered individually.
