## Long description

KOH-I-NOOR Progresso 9B graphite pencils set of 12 offers a collection of professional soft leads designed for expressive drawing, sketching and tonal studies.

Consistent core quality across the set ensures even texture and predictable wear, suitable for layered shading, expressive line work and mixed-technique drawing.

Key specifications
Lead grade: 9B (very soft, extra dark)
Quantity: 12 pencils per set
Casing: wooden barrel designed for standard sharpening
Stroke character: very dark, smooth and blendable
Recommended support: paper and sketching pads suitable for soft graphite
How to use
Sharpen the wooden casing with a compatible sharpener to expose the soft graphite core, taking care to preserve the integrity of the lead. Apply the pencil with varying pressure to achieve different tonal values: light pressure for soft midtones and heavy pressure for saturated black areas. Use side strokes of the core for broad coverage and the tip for finer lines; blend with a paper stump or finger where gradual transitions are needed. Clean the paper surface from loose graphite with a soft brush to avoid unintended smudging.
Usage recommendations
For prolonged life of the soft cores, store pencils horizontally and avoid excessive sharpening. Test strokes on the intended paper to determine the optimal pressure and blending method for your technique. Pair the 9B pencils with harder grades for a wider tonal range and with fixative spray for finished works that require reduced smudging.
