The new Charcoal set contains 4 different forms of charcoal from pencils and compressed blocks to chunky willow and fine sticks together with a Paper Stump which is ideal for smudging and blending this dusty media.

The Derwent Charcoal Pencil offers all the drama of traditional charcoal with more control and less mess perfect for dark intense lines. The two Derwent Tinted Charcoal Pencils, Glowing Embers and White, do all this and more by bringing a hint of colour to your work, allowing you to create rich deep tones and natural highlights.

The three Compressed Charcoal Blocks, light, medium and dark that feature in the set are ideal for larger drawings as they can be used on their side to create broad sweeping strokes. The Natural Chunky Willow Charcoal is perfect for making bold fluid lines while the two Natural Vine Charcoal Sticks are ideal for quick responsive mark making.
