These premium colored pencils have soft, thick leads, unmatched in brilliance, point strength and blending quality. They offer smooth, veratile coverage that can be vivid and intense in one stroke and subtle and soft in the next. The thick cores are made of permanent pigments in wax binder that resist fading, and due to a special bonding process, they also resist crumbling. The round cedar wood case is finished to match lead color. Brand:Prismacolor
