Colored pencils Amex Jumbo Cricco triangular set — 12 colors

Set of 12 Amex Jumbo Cricco colored pencils with a triangular barrel designed to improve grip and control. The pencils feature a jumbo diameter and durable color cores that allow broader strokes and reliable coloring for children and hobbyists. This set provides twelve distinct colors suitable for schoolwork, craft projects, and everyday drawing or colouring tasks.

Advantages

The triangular shape reduces rolling and promotes an ergonomic grip, which helps maintain control during longer colouring sessions. Jumbo cores deliver stronger, more visible lines and are less prone to breakage under normal pressure. The compact set of twelve colours covers a basic palette for mixing and layering, while the durable wooden casing withstands frequent use and sharpening.

How to use

Select a pencil colour and apply even pressure for consistent coverage; the jumbo core provides thicker lines and fills larger areas faster than standard pencils. Sharpen with a standard pencil sharpener suitable for jumbo cores, checking the sharpener opening fits the larger diameter to avoid splintering. Store the set in a dry place and keep caps or a case nearby to prevent accidental damage to the cores.

Usage recommendations

For young children, supervise sharpening and use a safe, age-appropriate sharpener. To extend pencil life, avoid excessive pressure when colouring and rotate through colours to evenly use the set. Combine colours by layering or light cross-hatching to achieve richer tones.
