Derwent Lightfast Colored Pencils Metal Tin Set of 72

JESSE LANE

Lightfast is Derwent's first oil-based colored pencil. The robust core offers a balance between hard and soft, making the finely sharpened core less prone to breakage while also providing the smoothness of a creamy and soft pencil. The glossy wooden pencil body has a luxurious design with a neutral color that highlights the color at the top, allowing you to quickly find the desired color during your work. What I love about the Lightfast color selection is the abundance of colors available, including those that are almost black, though not completely black. Lightfast is very convenient for gradually changing the shades of shadows. Additionally, being able to use intermediate colors to create subtle skin tones is also a pleasing aspect.

100% Lightfast – Colors will not fade for up to 100 years.

Derwent Lightfast is formulated to achieve 100% lightfastness. The innovative core possesses resistance to long-term color changes, ensuring that art pieces do not fade for up to 100 years under museum conditions. These oil-based, smooth colored pencils are characterized by their vibrant colors. By blending colors on paper, they can produce effects similar to those of paint. Made from the finest raw materials and pure pigments, all colors comply with the international lightfastness standards ASTM D-6901 and the Blue Wool Scale ISO 105.
