The pencils arrived promptly and were well packaged. I cannot describe the sheer brilliance of these pencils. They glide over paper. I'm not an artist just like to colour in but I like good products for that. I have the Caran D'Ache Pablos too and combined with Polychromos, my pictures look better and they don't break or need to be sharpened a lot. Lovely range of colours too. The Faber-Castell water colour pencils are cheaper but nothing compares with Caran D'Ache. If u can afford them, buy them. You won't be disappointed.

I absolutely love these pencils & often when I haven't space to take much away with me these are my first choice, not just for sketching & recording colours to use in later works, but for actually producing finished pieces- regardless of the chosen subject.I also love the fact that the colours I use the most are easily replaced individually.I started off with a small set, then bought the big size as funds permitted & after finding them so useful.Initially I kept the smaller set just for spares but when a lovely art student was watching me draw one day & expressed such keen interest I decided to pass them on to her as I know they will bring her much joy & give her a great start.The pencils are really smooth to work with, soft but not 'gooey' as others I've tried, whilst the pigments are beautifully rich & layer wonderfully. I find that they allow me to capture skin tone, light in the way I wish & in a similar way to my painting style even when harnessing just the 'pencil' element of these water soluble pencils. I've added a couple of photos to try & show what I mean.They deliver stunning effects on most mediums, I particularly like the results that can be achieved using water colour paper, tinted & dark pastel papers, & wood based surfaces , although to be fair there aren't any mediums I haven't achieved great results from after a little practice.These really are a joy to use & I have happily demonstrated & recommended them to others ... & no I do not receive my pencils free or subsidised, or get paid by any company to review or 'push' a product. I am simply a self employed artist that enjoys sharing arty know how with anyone like minded- after all it is far too easy to waste money on products that simply are not up to the job. Personally I could have saved hundreds of £'s over the years if not thousands if someone had just passed on why they thought some products were better or worse than others. I hope you find this review useful in finding the right pencils to suit your arty needs.

Great quality, beautiful colours

Great pencils, wonderful pigments and nice hand grip. Although the tips are soft they are strong enough to handle some pressure. My daughter (11) has had other watercolor pencils brands and is thrilled with these.As to the delivery it arrived within the estimated delivery time and it was well packed.Overall it's really worth 5 stars.

I realised too late I had probably over reached my abilities when buying these. I have now tried using them and indeed found it very hard going. I haven't tried to use watercolour pencils before so it wasn't going to be easy but watching people on YouTube they make it look so simple. I am also finding these particular pencils very soft so getting details is difficult with them. I do wish I had been able to return them but for a number of reasons I am unable to return large items

I own a lot of Caran D Ache pencils. I also own Faber Castel & Prisma Color. In my opinion, the Caran D'Ache pencils are superior in quality. They never disappoint! The colours are beautiful, blendable, creamy. I just hope they have even more colours in the box....

They are the best water pencils out there in my opinion. Wonderful blending qualities. I have a set of my own so these are for my granddaughter. Best price I could get them for and a fantastic delivery service.

Delighted with these coloured pencils. I already own Faber-Castell polychromos - which are excellent - and I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of these Caran d'Ache pencils. Have since added to my collection by purchasing individual pencils to build up my colour range now I know how good they are.

I LOVE these pencils! I tend to get a bit heavy handed and they still blend beautifully. A bit disappointed blenders aren't included but I was able to order a set here. Other brand blenders don't work well. I am excited I can do some water effects. I am no artist by any means, but watering down the pencils is fun. Beware, water makes the colors stronger....

The media could not be loaded. Produto chegou muito bem embalado e em poucos dias! Os lápis possuem a qualidade esperada da Caran D'ache e são extremamente pigmentados. Recomendo.

Je les ai eu pour mon anniversaire, et ils sont incroyables. Vibrants, agréable à utiliser. Ce sont mes premiers crayons de Caran d'ache, et je ne suis pas déçue.

Sehr schöne, cremige Stifte.

Encore une fois caran d'Ache prouve sa fiabilité des crayons hauts de gammes. De superbes couleurs aquarelables. Livrés dans une boîte métallique. Beau nuancier de couleurs. Envoi rapide et soigné. Pas de doublons, pas de casse, se taillent très bien, pas la peine d'appuyer fort, vendu également à l'unité. Un investissement mais pour un très beau résultat. Je reste malgré tout fidèle aux faber castell qui restent pour moi mes préférés mais ces crayons sont très très bons également, ça me permet de mélanger les crayons de plusieurs marques pour agrandir mon nuancier. Payable en 4 fois si le prix est un frein pour vous car ils valent leurs prix. Je recommande vivement.
