🖤 Classic training. Modern performance. Beautifully rich charcoal.
Trusted by artists, instructors, and classical ateliers around the world, Nitram Académie Fusains B-Soft Charcoal Sticks deliver the smooth handling, deep tonal range, and remarkable durability that have made Nitram a favorite among serious draftsmen. Designed with a versatile 5mm square profile, these premium artist-grade charcoal sticks produce luxurious velvety blacks while maintaining the strength and control needed for both expressive sketching and refined academic drawing.
Unlike traditional vine or willow charcoal, Nitram's exclusive manufacturing process preserves the wood's natural cell structure, creating charcoal that is significantly stronger, less brittle, and far less likely to crumble during use. The result is a soft charcoal that glides effortlessly across paper, blends beautifully, erases cleanly, and produces noticeably less dust than conventional charcoal.
The square profile offers exceptional versatility, allowing artists to use broad faces for smooth tonal passages or crisp edges for controlled line work. Despite its soft B formulation, each stick can be sharpened to an impressively fine point with a sanding block, making it equally suited for delicate detail work and bold expressive marks.
