Thee Best!!!

Great color lay down, feel wonderful to work with. They are expensive. It just depends on what you want. I suggest you get a small set and try them first then if you really love them go for it rather than spend a lot and then realize that you prefer something else. Personally, I prefer my F/C Polychromos over the 16 brands of quality pencils I have tried. You just have to find out what is best for you. Good luck.

Gorgeous colors, smooth like butter. Blend so well. The quality is worth the money!! I was so happy to get mine on sale!!!

When I first got these I was quite disappointed - the pencils were a bit scratchy they laid down less smoothly than my Polychromos and they were insanely expensive. However after using these for some time I realized that they are best pencils I have for blending. Unlike other pencils that just layer one color on another, these are able to create a new color when you blend. They are among the most pigmented and soft pencils I own (I own Luminance, Polychromos, Prismacolor, Lyra Rembrandt, Blick Studio and Crayola).I do not like the color range, the biggest set you can get is only 76 colors. I bought the 20 from Amazon and later purchased the 76 on Black Friday from Jerrys. I feel that pinks are really limited and wish there were more greens and blues as well. I also love that they use FSC wood meaning that it’s made from sustainable sources. From a value standpoint if you are using these in a coloring book like me they aren’t the best value. They Prismacolor and Polychromos have a much bigger range of colors, are cheaper and do a reasonable job of blending. However these are the best money can buy in terms of blending and lightfastness IMHO.If you are considering buying colored pencils for coloring check the type of paper used in the coloring books. I found that these pencils worked well on Menuet De Bonheur, Hanna Karlzons books, Twilight Garden which have a matt finish and not as well on Tenderful Enchantments which has a slick surface.

These really are wonderful, and this little set will put the experience of working with them within your reach. This little set hits the colors you need to realize a project, with no time wasted on a range of grays. They blend and layer with subtlety to create intermediate colors, as well as surprising ones that don't seem to be linear sums.I bought a 72 color set of lesser premium professional pencils, then used this selection to fill out the spectrum of brights and skin tones. These sit deeper in the paper than the American flagship brand, and have a more matte surface. The brands blend well enough on their own, but a colorless wax blender pencil was a good investment for the less expensive brand.Sanguine Russet is a treasure in itself, with the rosy underglow you see in some darker skin tones. The 20 color selection doesn't duplicate the ultramarine and blue violet shades, which would bother me if it was all I had, but offers a Prussian blue in a class of its own, and a true blue with a related tint. There are three landscape greens.The three yellows fill in missing slots in my pencil folio case, and I would have coveted this set for those alone. I just fanned them out on deep green pastel paper, along with the white, and they are popping off the page at me. It happens to be Easter morning, and crocuses are up between the snow patches outside. Oh my.The box they come in is totally perfect to carry them outside, but I've transferred them to a case with my big set. We will go outside now.

My product was fine but Amazon didn’t even bother to put it in a bag or box. Just slapped a label on the manufacturer’s packaging. That should not be acceptable for these expensive pencils.

Let us start off with packaging. Very snugly and well packaged. Each pencils has it's own foam nook to sit in, and the pencils will not fall out or roll around. It arrived on time, and the outer packaging and box were unmarred and whole. Pencils arrived with no issues such as breakage or snapped tips.Now, for the Color. At first try, they didn't seem to be any different from the Prismacolor Premier, which is my go-to that I adore. But, if you use a blender, these blend out further and are softer than even the Premier line ( Is that even possible?). They go on things I have already pretty much burnished, and they feel so smooth on the paper. They work well with Gamsol, and the blender from Caran D'ache is a gem which I love better than the Prismacolor blender, which sounds and feels so scratchy compared to this one. Note, it doesn't come with a blender.Do I love them? Yes. Will I buy more. Yes, but it will take some time, since the price is pretty steep.If you are just starting out, are these the best for you? Probably not. They are expensive, and unless you use colored pencils a lot, you may not want to foot the bill when there is a second best option out there priced like the Premier line is. But, for those of you that breath colored pencils, who suffer Colored Pencil withdrawals when doing Inktober, this is most definitely the royalty of the colored pencils world.
