Colour Pencil Set giotto 257300 — single pencil, standard wooden core, MPN 305734

giotto 257300 is a single wooden-core colour pencil designed for general drawing, sketching and colouring tasks. The pencil combines a solid wooden shaft with a standard-colour core to deliver consistent colour laydown and reliable sharpening. Intended for school, hobby and light illustration work, this giotto pencil offers a straightforward tool for adding colour accents, practicing techniques or completing small projects.

Advantages

The wooden casing provides a comfortable grip and good resistance to breakage during normal use. The pigment core produces even, blendable colour suitable for layering and basic shading. As an individual pencil, it allows selective purchase of specific colours to expand an existing set or to replace a worn or lost pencil without buying a full pack.

Suitable for

• School activities and colouring books
• Hobby drawing and sketching
• Light illustration and detail work
• Art practice, study and colour testing

Key specifications

• Construction: wooden barrel with pigment core
• Core type: standard coloured pencil lead for dry use
• Finish: smooth wood surface for comfortable handling
• Intended use: drawing, colouring, shading and layering

How to use

Sharpen the pencil with a standard pencil sharpener or craft knife to expose a clean core. Apply colour using variable pressure to achieve lighter or darker tones; use cross-hatching and layering for shading and blending. For fine details, keep the tip well sharpened and work on suitable paper with moderate tooth. Store the pencil in a pencil case or holder to protect the tip from breakage.

Usage recommendations

For best results, pair this giotto wooden-core pencil with medium-tooth drawing paper and sharpen carefully to avoid undue core breakage. Combine with other giotto pencils of matching quality to create consistent colour palettes for school projects and hobby illustrations.
