Expressive Drawing With Natural Willow Charcoal

The SoHo Willow Charcoal Mixed Set of 15 is ideal for artists who value loose expressive marks and effortless blending. Made from natural willow branches burned at high temperatures, this charcoal produces rich velvety blacks that are easy to manipulate, blend, and erase.

This mixed-size set provides excellent versatility for sketching, gesture drawing, and value studies. The charcoal’s soft fragile nature allows it to crumble slightly as you draw, creating organic textures and bold tonal variation that are perfect for exploratory and preliminary work.
