What it is:

The best quality crayons you'll ever try!  The block shape is ideal for big areas/projects, but also very good for smaller children to use because it helps them grip and control it better.  The Sticks are great for detail and outlining.

Made with non-toxic and sweet smelling beeswax which is better for the environment and better for great art.  Unlike other common brands available in North America which are only tested to local Toy Standards, Stockmar Beeswax Crayons are tested to meet European food standards (which are significantly more strict!).

The addition of beeswax in the crayons helps to create great lustre that makes drawings come to life.  These crayons last much longer than "cheap" brands do.   Beeswax also allows you to layer the colour and "scrape" areas for amazing effects.  Long lasting and brilliant in colour, they are a favourite for parents, children and schools.  (Waldorf Schools use Stockmar almost exclusively).

This luxurious set includes one block in each of the 8 Traditional Waldorf colours. Includes the artist scraping tool and a great idea guide.  Set is in a handy tin case for great gift presentation and durable storage.

Why we like it:

1.   The quality of these crayons is outstanding.  They last longer than regular crayons and don't break as easily.

2.   The lustre of the crayons lets you layer the colours and create amazing effects using the scraping tool.  This is fun and exciting for budding artists and seasoned veterans alike!

3.   The incredibly handy tin is great for gift-giving and storage.

4.   We have no concerns about toxicity because this product is tested to a food standard and not just a toy standard!
