Create luminous pastel artwork with blendable pencils
Crumbling during sharpening, patchy color transfer, and inconsistent blending. The softer texture now deposits pigment with less pressure, building color faster while maintaining the characteristic dusty, matte finish that makes pastels distinct from colored pencils. That same softness enables smoother blending between hues without the dragging or skipping that plagued earlier formulations.
The 4.0mm core strikes a practical balance, wide enough for quick coverage when working on edge, narrow enough for controlled detail work when sharpened to a point. Round 8.0mm barrels feel natural in hand during extended sessions, whether you're blocking in backgrounds or refining facial features. These pencils sharpen cleanly now, the reformulated cores holding together rather than fragmenting in the sharpener.
Derwent rebalanced the color range to provide more intuitive mixing relationships, eliminating the gaps that previously required awkward workarounds. The matt red barrels feature silver imprinting and range stripes for quick identification. Buy individual colors to expand your working palette, or order six for a full box. Sets are also available for those building a pastel pencil collection from scratch.
