## Long description

Carioca 42857 colour pencils set contains 12 retractable pencils in a range of basic and vivid tones including Black, Brown, Green, Light Green, Pink, Purple, Red, Violet and Yellow. Each pencil has an extended length of 384 mm and is supplied with a retractable lid for protected tips and easier transport. The pencils feature smooth leads with intense, brilliant pigments and can produce a watercolor effect when blended with water and a brush, making them suitable for both dry colouring and wet techniques.
Advantages
The set combines durable retractable lids with long-format pencils that reduce breakage and protect the core during storage and carrying. Pigmented, smooth leads provide even colour laydown and good coverage on paper. The watercolor-capable formulation allows gradual mixing and chromatic blending when applied with water, expanding creative possibilities beyond traditional colouring.

 School colouring and classroom art projects

Key specifications
 Number of colours: 12

 Lead properties: smooth, intensely pigmented
 Length: 384 mm per pencil
 Closure: retractable lid for each pencil
 Colour range: includes black, brown, green, light green, pink, purple, red, violet, yellow and additional tones
How to use
Use the pencils dry for standard colouring and shading by applying even pressure for consistent colour. To achieve watercolor effects, apply colour on paper and then blend with a damp brush — increase or decrease water to control saturation and diffusion. Retract the lid to protect the tip after use and store the pencils horizontally or standing in a case to avoid accidental damage.
Usage recommendations
For best results, use on medium-weight, slightly textured paper for wet techniques and smoother paper for precise dry details. Test water blending on a spare sheet to determine the desired intensity and avoid over-saturation that can warp lightweight paper.
