Derwent's Pastel Pencils provide all the subtle beauty of a pastel, with the convenience of a pencil. Dust is kept to a minimum, and they can be sharpened just like any other pencil. You have more control over your work: a sharp point lends itself to outlines and more intricate detail, while allowing it to become more blunt gives a wider coverage.
The soft, powdery texture produces a smooth, velvety finish and blends perfectly. They're also water-soluble.
Tin of 12 standard colours contains one each of Process Yellow, Spectrum Orange, Cadmium Red, Violet, Cyan, Prussian Blue, Forest Green, Pea Green, Sepia, Yellow Ochre, Carbon Black and Titanium White.
Tin designs may vary.
