These are the first colour pencil Derwent ever developed in the 1930s and used to be known as the No. 19 range. Their traditional round barrel and wide core makes it perfect for broad strokes and free, expressive drawing. Artists' pencils have a slightly waxy texture and are ideal for multiple layering and blending to produce an infinite spectrum of subtly different hues and tints. Available in a fantastic range of 120 colours, Derwent Artists' Pencils have stood the test of time.
