STAEDTLER 157 SB24 Ergosoft Triangular Colouring Pencils - Assorted Colours (Pack of 24 Pencils)

Product Information

The Staedtler Ergosoft Colored Pencils are quite unique in that they are triangular-shaped and furthermore they come with an A.B.S. protective coating that reinforces the wax-based core. Essentially they can go through a lot of wear and tear and still hold up. Overall, they lay down color quite well and show pretty good pigmentation. Over 180 years ago, Johann Sebastian Staedtler developed the colored oil pastel pencil, the predecessor of the colored pencil. The manufacturing process has not changed all that much over the years: individual color pigments are still mixed with binding agents and pressed into the shape of a lead. The lead is encased in wood to protect it. These colored pencils offer numerous advantages over the earlier pastel pencils:

These are not water-soluble so blending will have to be through other methods but this is not a big deal as the blending is challenging but rewarding and worth the added effort. The color that is produced is quite vivid and really stands out. You may want to try using these in combination with a more muted colored pencil set for a really nice effect. Tip: Many STAEDTLER coloured pencils are available in a set as well as individually. You can therefore buy replacements of your favourite colours, which usually get used up sooner. Thanks to its triangular shape, the pencil sits comfortably in the hand ensuring relaxed and easy coloring. People have been creating pictures since time immemorial. They use this activity as a way to practice their creativity and let their creative thoughts run free, allowing them to relax while colouring and take delight in the results. Whether coloured pencils for children or adults, or artists coloured pencils: you will find the perfect coloured pencils to suit your individual needs and preferences in STAEDTLER’s wide range of products.
