Faber-Castell : Polychromos Pencil Sets

Faber-Castell Polychomos are the finest oil-based color pencils on the market. Each pencil has a 3.8mm lead which is colored with high-quality artists' pigments suspended in an oil-based binder.

This lead is bound to its casing of Californian cedar-wood, which renders it exceptionally break-resistant. It is water-resistant, smudge proof and has exceptional covering power, though it will also sharpen to a very fine point for detailed work. The full range includes 120 colors which are graded good, very good, or maximum for lightfastness.

All Faber-Castell pencils, pens, and erasers use inorganic and synthetic materials or materials of plant origin. Faber-Castell maintains a commitment to no animal testing on their products or materials. They do not use casein glue in their packaging.
