## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: They really are worth the hype! - It’s well known that these are probably the most expensive coloured pencils on the market, but I can see why. Even the box and trays the beauties are nestled in are pure class. Each pencil sits snugly in its holder and the trays (which are really sturdy) have a piece of soft foam covering them. The pencils feel so comfortable and well made to hold and during swatching the colours, I discovered that they have a unique colour - Titanium Buff - which is the perfect highlight colour for Caucasian skin! They play down like butter and blend beautifully. Whilst they are softer than Polychromos, they are still sharp enough for details. I haven’t even finished swatching them as I am layering up each swatch (they can take A LOT of layers) and I want to demonstrate that with my swatch pages.
Review: So good - Any professional artist knows the name and the quality of this brand. These pencils are no different. For the beginner I would say they are a sound investment but try a few open source ones first to see if they suit you. Then, just go ahead they are the dogs gonads.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: 100 colores and 2 colorless blenders, whats the other 2 pencils? Because the picture showes there are 104 pencils in the box.**
A: An extra black and white

**Q: So, this would be a combination of the original 72 set and the newer 24 set that was released sometime later?**
A: Yes. Exactly right.

**Q: Are these all the colors?**
A: Yes. They make 100 at this time.

**Q: Whats the difference between these and the peublo version?**
A: We agree with the other commenter's statement about the difference between Pueblo and Luminance. However, in our experience, Caran d'Ache pencils are WORLDS better than Prismacolor, which is undependable and inconsistent in quality--and is difficult to get refunds/replacements. Faber Castell and Derwent are also good alternatives. We STRONGLY recommend avoiding Prismacolor.
