Polychromos Artists’ Colored Pencils are valued internationally by professionals and semi-professionals for their unsurpassed quality. Since 1908, artists worldwide have relied on their vibrancy, durability, and consistency to bring their ideas to life.
Polychromos Colored Pencils are infused with premium, acid-free pigments, ensuring exceptional lightfast qualities. Each pencil is rated, with 102 out of 120 colors achieving the highest *** rating. This ensures that artworks created with Polychromos pencils will remain vivid and vibrant over time.
The rich, permanent colors are water-resistant and smudge-proof, making them suitable for various techniques and surfaces. Up to 90% of color marks can be removed and touched up with an art eraser, depending on the surface. Housed in premium cedar wood, the round colored pencils are pre-sharpened for endless art creation. The 3.8mm robust leads are break-resistant, ensuring that the pencils can withstand extensive use and sharpening without crumbling. This durability makes them practical and long-lasting.
Faber-Castell Pitt Matte Graphite Pencils allow you to create graphite drawings without glare or reflection on the paper! Unlike other graphite pencils that create a luster when applied heavily, these pencils offer an ultra-matte graphite laydown for reduced reflection on paper.
These graphite sketch pencils have the highest tonal value density for maximum depth effects. With a smooth graphite laydown, they are ideal for writing, drawing, and sketching. They are especially suitable for monochrome graphite work.
The pencils are coated with environmentally friendly water-based varnish and produced from wood from certified sustainable forestry.
The break-resistant leads are guaranteed easy to sharpen and are offered in 8 degrees of lead hardness to achieve light-to-dark strokes, with the 14B being a world first!

Not as creamy as prisma-colored pencils since they’re oil-based instead of the waxed-based prisma. So these hold their sharpness better. Good for adding details. My daughter’s drawing pet portraits with these and she really likes their effect for fur, compared to the prisma pencils. The prisma pencils are better for coloring the base layer of a pet portrait and for human portraits. These pencils are actually a good complement to prisma pencils. These pencils are also great for detailing goauche and watercolor paintings. My daughter’s impressed with these pencils overall quality. The fact that they come with soft & quality graphite pencils is a huge plus, especially they’re not shiny like other brands she’s used.
Greatly recommended.

I picked these up as a gift for my wife since she likes colored pencils and usually doesn’t buy pencils of this caliber so I thought it would be a nice change. She told me they were noticeably nicer than the ones she was previously using and colored with both to show me the comparison. These are very pricey but if you’re into it, they’re nice and it’s worth it!

This colored pencil gift set is BEAUTIFUL, from the presentation to the high quality pencils you really are getting your money’s worth. The box it comes in is sturdy, attractive, and does a great job of keeping the pencils safe during transport. Faber-Castell has a great reputation for art supplies and these do not disappoint – the colors are vibrant, they keep their point, and allow for detailed work and fine lines. They set down very smoothly on paper. When it comes to blending they are not as soft and blendable as the other high quality colored pencils but they are truly wonderful and allow for fine detailed work. These will last a really long time in comparisons to other high quality colored pencils. I’m very impressed with these and would highly recommend them.

My oldest is really creative, always drawing pictures from her imagination and free handing things she sees that she wants to draw. I knew these would be perfect for her and she loves them! High quality, great colors, and perfect for her to have a special set that is her own.
