Why should beautiful art supplies be in the domain of adults and artists? Children are naturally creative and frustration and dissatisfaction can be avoided when they are given beautiful, good quality art supplies. Stockmar is a brand that provides us with wax crayons, watercolours that can be successfully used using the wet on wet technique and modelling beeswax.

The Stockmar logo combines the hexagonal form of a beehive with Goethe’s colour circle. Beeswax and colour: at Stockmar that is what it all comes down to. Stockmar is all about the bees- being the most important componant in the wax-based paints and modelling beeswax. Beeswax is in fact crucially important to the paints. Both in the wax-based paints and in the modelling beeswax it is responsible for the characteristic transparent, glazed effect.

As well as aesthetic principles and art teaching considerations, ecological and social aspects are also central to the development and manufacture of Stockmar's products. Stockmar is an ethical, profit sharing company that is not capital owned. Most importantly, they take their reputation very seriously and strive to maintain consumer confidence in their fine product.
