Les fusains se présentent sous la forme de petites baguettes, longues de 15 cm environ, et sont vendus en assortiments de grosseurs différentes. Les plus fins doivent être affûtés sur un papier abrasif, mais les plus gros (0,6 cm de diamètre) peuvent être taillés avec une lame de rasoir. Les gros «fusains vénitiens», plus friables, s'effacent sans laisser de trace. Les fusains ordinaires sont tendres, demi-durs ou durs selon leur degré de cuisson. (Manuel des artistes - Toutes les techniques des arts plastiques, 1982, p. 102). 3, record 3, French, - fusain
