Much to the delight of artists everywhere, the renowned Nitram Fine Art Charcoal has returned. First introduced in 1962 and considered the best on the market, in recent years it had become difficult to obtain.

Now, thanks to the determination of Jerzy Niedojadlo, who purchased the company and took over production, the near-mythic Nitram Fine Art Charcoal is again available for artists to enjoy.
