• Superior Charcoal Formula: Made from high-quality, oil-free willow charcoal and fine organic blacks, ensuring an ultra-smooth laydown and consistent, intense pigment without grittiness.
• Effortless Blending & Smudging: The medium softness allows for seamless blending, enabling you to create smooth tonal gradations, soft edges, and atmospheric effects with ease using blending stumps, tissues, or your fingers.
• Wood-Cased for Precision & Cleanliness: Encased in smooth, high-grade cedar wood, this pencil offers the familiar feel and precise control of a traditional pencil, reducing mess while allowing for both detailed work and broader strokes. It comes pre-sharpened, ready for immediate use.

  • General Sketching & Layouts: Great for initial sketches, gesture drawing, and establishing compositions.
  • Tonal Studies & Shading: Ideal for building up layers of value and creating realistic rendering in portraits, still life, and landscapes.
