Each Colours pencil features a specially formulated soft and smooth colour core designed specifically for colouring. The pencils feature the same comfortable hexagonal barrel found in the original Blackwing graphite pencils, and a metal cap that adds a bit of weight, giving the pencils a balanced feel.
Made of FSC-certified cedarwood in Japan, each pencil has a lacquer finish that matches its wax core, and a crisp silver imprint.
