    • High quality as per reviews
Color: Multi
These pencils live up to the positive reviews. They are smooth and apply a lot of pigment. They are comfortable to use and blend nicely. I’m going to end up finding a larger set than the 20 pencils. My only complaint is because of their thickness I can’t use the rechargeable pencil sharpener I just bought but ordered a manual sharpener with a larger sharpening hole. ... show more

    • Creamy, highly lightfast
Color: Multi
Every pencil in the set of 20 is rated LF1, the highest ASTM lightfast rating. That is why the pencils are expensive; those pigments are costly. These colors go down smoothly, are creamy. They are also among the more transparent pigments; the lighter colors will not show as well on darker papers. I have also used Polychromos pencils and find the Luminance to be at least as soft and creamy as those. The red and pink pencils are warm and do not mix well with blues, but the manganese violet is a good, warm violet and will mix very well with the blue pencils for cooler violet hues. ... show more

    • Beautiful pencils with good build quality, lovely colors and rich pigment
Color: Multi
I am a colorist. I gave into temptation and ordered a first set of 20, and knew quickly I wanted more. These are soft, richly pigmented, and lovely in the hand. Their top of the line reputation is well deserved. IMO, beginner colorists should start with less expensive, but soft pencils like Prismacolor, or Coloursoft, or even Black Widow. But if you have colored awhile, buy a small set of these and fall under their spell. And you will likely want more of these. If you know you’ll be coloring or drawing as a permanent part of your life, these will be worth their cost. Use these along with Derwent Lightfast pencils for a fuller color palette. ... show more

    • Insanely expensive but blends like a rockstar

When I first got these I was quite disappointed - the pencils were a bit scratchy they laid down less smoothly than my Polychromos and they were insanely expensive. However after using these for some time I realized that they are best pencils I have for blending. Unlike other pencils that just layer one color on another, these are able to create a new color when you blend. They are among the most pigmented and soft pencils I own (I own Luminance, Polychromos, Prismacolor, Lyra Rembrandt, Blick Studio and Crayola). I do not like the color range, the biggest set you can get is only 76 colors. I bought the 20 from Amazon and later purchased the 76 on Black Friday from Jerrys. I feel that pinks are really limited and wish there were more greens and blues as well. I also love that they use FSC wood meaning that it’s made from sustainable sources. From a value standpoint if you are using these in a coloring book like me they aren’t the best value. They Prismacolor and Polychromos have a much bigger range of colors, are cheaper and do a reasonable job of blending. However these are the best money can buy in terms of blending and lightfastness IMHO. If you are considering buying colored pencils for coloring check the type of paper used in the coloring books. I found that these pencils worked well on Menuet De Bonheur, Hanna Karlzons books, Twilight Garden which have a matt finish and not as well on Tenderful Enchantments which has a slick surface. ... show more

    • You can afford a working set of these beauties.
Color: Multi
These really are wonderful, and this little set will put the experience of working with them within your reach. This little set hits the colors you need to realize a project, with no time wasted on a range of grays. They blend and layer with subtlety to create intermediate colors, as well as surprising ones that don't seem to be linear sums. I bought a 72 color set of lesser premium professional pencils, then used this selection to fill out the spectrum of brights and skin tones. These sit deeper in the paper than the American flagship brand, and have a more matte surface. The brands blend well enough on their own, but a colorless wax blender pencil was a good investment for the less expensive brand. Sanguine Russet is a treasure in itself, with the rosy underglow you see in some darker skin tones. The 20 color selection doesn't duplicate the ultramarine and blue violet shades, which would bother me if it was all I had, but offers a Prussian blue in a class of its own, and a true blue with a related tint. There are three landscape greens. The three yellows fill in missing slots in my pencil folio case, and I would have coveted this set for those alone. I just fanned them out on deep green pastel paper, along with the white, and they are popping off the page at me. It happens to be Easter morning, and crocuses are up between the snow patches outside. Oh my. The box they come in is totally perfect to carry them outside, but I've transferred them to a case with my big set. We will go outside now. ... show more

    • They go on things I have already pretty much burnished
Color: Multi
Let us start off with packaging. Very snugly and well packaged. Each pencils has it's own foam nook to sit in, and the pencils will not fall out or roll around. It arrived on time, and the outer packaging and box were unmarred and whole. Pencils arrived with no issues such as breakage or snapped tips. Now, for the Color. At first try, they didn't seem to be any different from the Prismacolor Premier, which is my go-to that I adore. But, if you use a blender, these blend out further and are softer than even the Premier line ( Is that even possible?). They go on things I have already pretty much burnished, and they feel so smooth on the paper. They work well with Gamsol, and the blender from Caran D'ache is a gem which I love better than the Prismacolor blender, which sounds and feels so scratchy compared to this one. Note, it doesn't come with a blender. Do I love them? Yes. Will I buy more. Yes, but it will take some time, since the price is pretty steep. If you are just starting out, are these the best for you? Probably not. They are expensive, and unless you use colored pencils a lot, you may not want to foot the bill when there is a second best option out there priced like the Premier line is. But, for those of you that breath colored pencils, who suffer Colored Pencil withdrawals when doing Inktober, this is most definitely the royalty of the colored pencils world. ... show more
