Premium handcrafted from sustained yield incense cedar wood, these pigment-rich pencils have drawing and sketching properties similar to traditional chalks of renaissance style artists. These pencils are excellent for plein air art and field sketching. Colors are easily blended with a finger, paper stump, kneaded eraser, or tissue. Use on a rough-surfaced dark paper for a dramatic effect. Each acid-free pencil is tipped with General's extra-soft vinyl eraser. Pencils are pre-sharpened. Choose from different sets.
