we have some stockmar beeswax crayon blocks and they are not washable. I can get them off the table and floors with some elbow grease, but it doesn't wipe up as easily as the crayola washable crayons.

I think I bought mine off of ebay a few years ago. They last forever. My youngest prefers to stack them up like blocks more than he likes to color with them.

ITA. Not washable, but for us that hasn't been a big deal. They are non toxic.

THey do last a really long time, which is one reason they are spendy.
