“Alain's Mamut Baby Pastels arrived all the way from Spain and are beautiful, lush and highest quality pastels I've ever seen. They are rounded, perfectly shaped for ease of handling. Presented in a lovely wooden latched box with foam padding these will be a VERY special holiday gift for a dear friend who is an artist! THANK YOU!”

“These pastels are absolutely lovely. Soft, but not too soft, rather like Unison in texture. The colors are fabulous. Can't wait to order my next set. I very highly recommend them. Thanks Alain, great job!”

“Just got my first set of these handmade pastels. Love them! I've used all the high end brands and the "not so high end" too! I have to say that these pastels are gorgeously pigmented. Some very interesting and beautiful colors! They are a dream to apply - they are soft, but not so soft they fill the tooth of the media making them wonderful to work with. Also, Alain is a great person to deal with.”

“Love these pastels; I will be a repeat customer! Highly recommend; especially if you love terry ludwig or sennellier pastels; Mamut is definitely a strong competitor for either brand; beautiful pigments with wonderful packaging and careful shipping packaging as well. Try them! You won’t be disappointed; you will wish you had purchased earlier!.”
