Charbonnell is a brand dating back to 1862, trusted by artists throughout history - from Renoir, Degas, Lautrec and Picasso to modern masters Rauschenberg, Hockney, Diebenkorn and Thiebaud.

Charbonnel continued to create and develop his business. Formulations were continuously enhanced, taking in artists' feedback while incorporating new advances in chemistry. New materials were developed for new reproduction techniques. Located in a traditionally artistic quarter, close to the Ecole des Beaux Arts and the Louvre, the Charbonnel shop became a popular meeting place for artists. Picasso, Chagall, Dali and Klee were dedicated customers and used Charbonnel products in their practice.

In the 1930s, a new photomechanical process, offset printing, emerged. Traditional lithographic print techniques, however, continued their popularity in the fine art world. The fine art print remained the preferred way to edition original artworks and continues to hold a position of high status.Charbonnel Etching Inks (inks) for gravure printing are characterized by their high pigment content and excellent covering power. They will be perfect for art school students, as they provide high quality at an affordable price.
