Available in a variety of colours, shades & tones, this extensive range of coloured pencils feature specially formulated, supersoft leads packed with pigment for incredibly vibrant, opaque colours that effortlessly glide across light, dark or coloured papers.
Not only are they undeniably stylish, but their sleek black barrels are made using sustainably sourced wood from FSC-certified forestry & ergonomically designed with a triangular shape that provides comfort whilst you work, so you can focus on creating.
