BÂTONS MOYENS (8MM)

NITRAM CHARCOAL BÂTONS MOYENS (8MM) – 5 PACK

The Nitram Charcoal Bâtons Moyens (8mm) are premium extra-soft artist charcoal sticks engineered for exceptional control, rich tonal expression, and remarkable durability. Measuring approximately 6 inches (152mm) in length, these professional-quality round batons are part of Nitram's renowned Beaux Arts series and are trusted by artists, classical ateliers, and fine art academies around the world.

Unlike traditional willow or vine charcoal, Nitram utilizes an exclusive manufacturing process that preserves the wood's natural cell structure. This innovative process creates charcoal that is significantly stronger, less brittle, and more resistant to crumbling while maintaining the luxuriously soft feel artists desire. The result is a charcoal stick that glides effortlessly across paper, produces deep velvety blacks, develops beautiful mid-tones, and erases cleanly for brilliant highlights and refined tonal transitions.

The 8mm "Moyens" baton offers the perfect balance between broad expressive strokes and precise mark-making. Positioned between Nitram's 6mm Petit and 12mm Épais sizes, it provides outstanding versatility for everything from quick gesture sketches to highly detailed portraits. Despite its extra-soft formulation, each stick can be sharpened to an exceptionally fine point with a sanding block, giving artists impressive precision when needed.

Ideal for figure drawing, portraiture, landscape studies, and classical drawing techniques, Nitram Bâtons Moyens deliver the smooth performance, durability, and expansive tonal range that have made Nitram charcoal a favorite among professional artists worldwide.
