50 Sakura Cray-Pass Limited Edition 100th Anniversary Oil Pastels

To celebrate Sakura's 100th anniversary, the Japanese brand is launching an exceptional limited edition of its iconic Cray-Pas range, a pioneer in oil pastels since 1925. This set brings together 50 colors with evocative names — from Japanese pinkish yellow to red plum blossom — offering an infinite range of creative possibilities.

Sakura Cray-Pas oil pastels offer a soft, blendable texture, ideal for mixing, layering, and subtle gradients. Their formulation allows you to play with shades, density, and light to achieve results similar to oil painting.

Often associated with childhood, Sakura Cray-Pas oil pastels remind us that this medium has been used by the greatest masters: Degas, Cézanne, Monet, and Redon explored the richness and depth offered by oil crayons and pastels. This set proves that they remain an artistic tool of great expressive power—ideal for both amateur artists and seasoned artists.

The pastels are AP (Art & Creative Materials Institute) certified, guaranteeing optimal safety in use.
