The Pablo waterproof coloured pencils, designed by the Maison Caran d'Ache for artists and illustrators, are intended for colour drawings of the highest quality. Pablo's high-precision leads are ideal for realistic illustrations. The dry leads with a diameter of 3.8 mm and excellent hiding power do not dust and with 120 shades offer a particularly large colour palette. Artists, draughtsmen and art teachers can rely on the extraordinarily good light resistance of the leads and their absolute opacity. Thanks to their high covering power, Pablo colour pencils are easy to use on a wide range of surfaces, from paper and cardboard with different surfaces to wooden boards. Their dense and velvety texture makes them suitable for shading, colour mixing and layering. The pencil shafts are fully lacquered and carry a capsule in the bright colour of the lead. The Pablo pencils are designed and manufactured in the Geneva workshops of Caran d'Ache according to the criteria of the Swiss Made quality label and comply with the applicable ecological standards and certifications.
