Coloured pencil assortment 12 pcs Derwent - Lightfast

The world's only 100% lightfast colored pencil is the oil-based Lightfast; it spreads like a dream, doesn't smudge, and covers wonderfully! The color can be thinned with, for example, turpentine, which makes it look like oil paint! Lightfastness refers to the chemical balance of the pigment in the pencil when exposed to light for long periods of time. Derwent Lightfast pencils are designed to be 100% lightfast, meaning that the lead color of the pencils is durable and will not fade in optimal conditions (such as museum conditions and when the paper is archival grade). Due to their opacity, dark colors stand out well among light shades. Dark shades can be used, for example, for drawing contours. Derwent Lightfast pencils are also very suitable for use on colored paper, thanks to the good covering ability of the pencils. The pigment content of the pencils is higher than that of other Derwent pencils. The 12-pen assortment includes the colors: Sun Yellow, Yellow Ochre, Sandstone, Salmon, Scarlet, Violet, Mid Ultramarine, Mallard Green, Natural Brown, Brown Ochre, Black and White.
