Colored Pencil Assortment 24 pcs Derwent - Lightfast

The world's only 100% lightfast colored pencil is the oil-based Lightfast; it glides on like a dream, creates no dust, and provides excellent coverage! The color can be thinned with turpentine, for example, making it paint-like! Lightfastness refers to the chemical balance of a pencil's pigment when exposed to light for extended periods. Derwent Lightfast pencils are designed to be 100% lightfast, meaning the color of the pencil lead is durable and will not fade over 100 years under optimal conditions (so-called museum conditions and archival paper). Due to their opacity, dark colors stand out well among light shades. Dark shades can be used, for example, for outlining. Derwent Lightfast pencils are also very suitable for use on colored paper, thanks to their good covering power. The pigment content of these pencils is higher than other Derwent pencils. The 24-pencil assortment includes the colors: Sun Yellow, Champagne, Yellow Ochre, Sandstone, Salmon, Scarlet, Ruby Earth, Heather, Violet, Blue Violet, Mid Ultramarine, Dark Turquoise, Mallard Green, Racing Green, Seaweed, Van Dyke Brown, Venetian Red, Natural Brown, Chocolate, Brown Ochre, Wheat, Mist, Black, and White.
