The first mention of the word "pastels" seems to be in the 17th century, but pastels are basically pigment plus a binder, which is hardly a new concept and dates back to prehistory; most cave "paintings" were done with what were, essentially, pastels.
It was invented because people like sitting on soft things that won't smell or hurt in the future. And people are lazy.
WHITE Chalk isn't something that was invented. Chalk is a soft porous rock which is a form of limestone made up of the mineral calcite. Blackboards and blackboard chalks have been around since the late 1700's.
Wallpaper was invented in China

Pastels were invented in the 15th century.
Basically, soft and oil pastels are made from the same powdered colour. They differ mainly in that soft pastels are bound with (probably) gum arabic, and oil pastels are bound with an oil. They give different effects. There are several types of pastels as a visit to an art shop will reveal.

The word pastel came from France, being made out of a list of words put together. I'm not sure when they were invented but the word was formed in 1662!
Pastels are a versatile medium used in art, known for their vibrant colors and soft texture. They consist of pure powdered pigment mixed with a binder, allowing for a range of effects from delicate washes to bold strokes. Pastels can be used on various surfaces, and they require fixatives to preserve the artwork, as the pigments can smudge easily. Additionally, pastels can create a unique luminosity, making them popular among artists for portraiture and landscapes.
Pastel is proof for most things that are liquid. Pastels have oil in them ,and so water etc... cant go through because oil always floats to the top in a cup of water and also from the soft but hard to go through .
