Castell : Goldfaber Colour Pencils : Metal Tin Set of 24

This set contains 24 of Faber-Castell’s Goldfaber Colour Pencils which are soft and have an intense colour laydown, within a handy metal tin measuring 18.5cm x 21.5cm. They are made from combining high-quality pigment with wax as a binding agent. This makes them break resistant and have a good lightfastness. The 3.3mm lead of these round barrelled pencils is very soft since it has been formed by a drying process rather than a traditional burning one. This means it can be used easily on rough surfaces, making them perfect for mixed-media, and additionally it is water-resistant and smudge-proof. These pencils were designed for intense expressive strokes, quick sketches, lively hatching or evenly shaded colour gradients. They are suitable for use by beginners but also would be a welcome addition to higher ability artists’ collections, thanks to the lead’s special properties.
