Graziani blonde pastel

[shelliebear]

Is this one of those, or a regular pastel? A guy I might buy a BP from if I can get this whole tank situation figured out sent me the photo. Said it is a Graziani blonde pastel. Is it a good one?? It looks gorgeous to me

It's either a Graziani or a Blonde or it can be something else, unless you buy a specific line from someone trustworthy that Pastel can be anything and the rest can be a gimmick.

If you want a Graziani buy from someone working with that line, same goes for Blonde or Lemon.

but it is a pastel for sure?

Even if the picture is far from great from the coloration and blushing I would say yes.

If I were you I would ask for a better quality pic in natural light to get an idea of it's coloration, it could very well be an ugly pastel.

Yeah i agree with above statements. Unless he has paperwork or proof that its a Graziani pastel, it's all just mumbo jumbo to me. I would see if a better picture will show the real beauty. From the picture given, i see a really already browned out pastel with very little light scales. Looks like a pretty low quality pastel in the picture, but it could be deceiving.

This is another photo he just sent me of the same little guy...

Still looks like a low grade Pastel, but these indoor warm white lights don't help at all. Either tell him to take a picture under a fluorescent cool white light or UV light and that will help, or an outside picture which is always easier.
