## Long description

Derwent XL Graphite Blocks set contains six large artist-grade graphite blocks in a sturdy tin case. The blocks are formulated for broad strokes, rich tonal variation and responsive mark-making, providing a versatile graphite media for sketching, shading, underpainting and expressive drawing. The metal tin protects the blocks in studio storage or when carried for travel, keeping edges intact and ready for use.
Advantages
The oversized shape of each graphite block allows confident sweeping strokes and efficient coverage of large areas without repeated sharpening. The artist-grade formulation offers a smooth, consistent laydown with a range of soft to medium tones suitable for subtle gradations and bold darks. The compact tin keeps the six blocks organised and protected, helping prevent smudging and breakage during transport or storage.
Suitable for
Large-scale sketching and quick tonal studies
Underpainting and blocking in values before detailed work
Expressive, gestural mark-making and mixed-media pieces
Outdoor and travel sketching where portability and protection are needed
Key specifications
Contents: 6 graphite blocks in a metal tin
Grades: range across soft to medium graphite tones for tonal variation
Shape: oversized rectangular blocks for broad strokes and edge work
Finish: smooth, consistent graphite laydown suitable for blending and layering
Packaging: durable metal tin for storage and transport
How to use
Hold the graphite block flat or on edge depending on the mark required — use the broad face for large area coverage and the sharpened edge for finer lines. Apply varying pressure to achieve different values and use blending tools or fingers to smooth transitions. The blocks can be combined with pencils, charcoal and erasers to refine details and highlights after establishing basic tonal structure.
Usage recommendations
Store the tin flat and avoid exposing blocks to extreme heat or moisture. Use a fixative spray if you need to protect finished work from smudging, and keep a clean cloth or blending stump handy for controlled smudging and tonal effects.
