How to use

Select the pencil color appropriate for your task and sharpen using a standard pencil sharpener to expose up to 2–3 mm of core for precise lines or more for broader strokes. Apply light, even pressure for fine details and increase pressure or layer multiple strokes to intensify color and achieve gradients. Use blending techniques with overlapping strokes or a colorless blender for smoother transitions. Store the pencils in the box to protect the cores from damage when not in use.

Usage recommendations

For best results, sharpen gently and avoid over-sharpening to reduce core breakage. Combine with different paper textures to explore color saturation and blending: smoother paper for fine detail and slightly toothy paper for richer layering. Keep away from prolonged moisture to preserve wood and pigment quality.
