FAQs

Are Marie's products suitable for large-volume procurement for UAE schools or creative departments?

Yes — Marie's offers paint sets, pencils, erasers and other items in formats that support classroom-scale supply. With FEPY's bulk-order support, you can efficiently service multiple branches or campuses.

Can Marie's supplies handle frequent use in UAE conditions?

Absolutely — Marie's is built around artistic-quality materials, meaning higher durability and performance than standard stationery items. Ordering via FEPY ensures the authenticity and standard you need.

Does FEPY offer delivery across all Emirates if I order Marie's items?

Yes — FEPY provides UAE-wide delivery, and for Marie's products, you'll benefit from the same logistics and dispatch times as other premium brands on the platform.

If a Marie's product arrives damaged or incorrect, what is the return policy?

FEPY's standard return and customer care policy applies. Suppose you receive a defective or incorrect Marie's product. In that case, you can initiate a replacement or refund in accordance with FEPY's terms and conditions.

Is Marie's only for art supplies, or is it also suitable for standard classroom/office stationery?

Marie's core strength lies in art, specifically drawing and sketching. Creative tools, many of which are items commonly used in standard stationery (such as pencils, erasers, and markers), make it a strong brand for both schools and creative offices in the UAE.

What's the difference between Marie's student-grade and professional-grade paints?

Both use genuine pigments, but professional-grade sets contain higher pigment concentration and larger tubes (often 12ml vs. 5ml). Professional sets offer greater colour saturation and coverage. For schools and beginners, student sets deliver excellent quality. For serious artists and professionals, larger pro sets justify the investment through extended use and superior colour performance.

Are Marie's colored pencils suitable for detailed illustration work?

Absolutely. The oil-based colored pencil sets are specifically designed for detailed work. The soft lead allows precise layering and blending. Artists use Marie's pencils for book illustrations, fine art, and professional commercial work. The 120-colour sets give illustrators the full spectrum needed for complex, nuanced artwork.

Can Marie's watercolours be mixed with other brands' paints?

Yes. Watercolours are universally compatible. You can mix Marie's with other watercolour brands without issues. However, Marie's pigment quality is strong enough that mixing isn't necessary—the full range of colours within a set delivers everything you need.

Do I need all 120 colours in a colored pencil set, or can I start with fewer?

Start with what matches your style. A 36-colour set covers most artistic needs. A 72-colour set expands your options significantly. The 120-colour set is for artists who want every possible shade. Schools often use 36-48 colour sets for classes. Professionals often prefer having the full range available. Build your collection based on your current practice.

Are Marie's acrylic paints suitable for outdoor murals or for use on weather-exposed surfaces?

Yes, once fully cured (typically 24 hours), Marie's acrylics are durable and weather-resistant. However, for maximum longevity on outdoor surfaces, seal the finished work with an exterior varnish. It protects the pigments from UV fading and extends the life of your mural or outdoor artwork.

What's the best way to store Marie's paints and colored pencils?

Keep paints in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Sealed tubes last for years. Colored pencils should be stored upright in a holder (to prevent tip breakage) and kept in a climate-controlled environment. Charcoal and sketching pencils are more durable and can tolerate variable storage conditions. All Marie's materials benefit from protection from dust and humidity extremes.

Do you offer bulk discounts for art schools and institutions?

Yes. FEPY PRO offers wholesale pricing to schools, art colleges, community centres, and institutional buyers. Contact our B2B team with your requirements and budget. We customise orders, arrange flexible delivery, and provide significant volume-based pricing for ongoing supply agreements.
