Pastel Power in a Premium Pencil Set

Whether you're sketching in the studio or working outdoors, these pastel pencils deliver rich, vibrant color with a smooth, clean application that’s easy to blend, smudge, and layer.

Each pencil features a 4.4mm high-pigment core that offers excellent lightfastness and a charcoal-like feel.
