Caran dAche Luminance 6901 Clr Pncl Set 76 Artist Rng

Wonderful glowing, subtle colors. Creamy feel as you lay down the color. Pencil tips are a good match for the actual color - this makes usage quite convenient (although I prefer the Faber Castell method of coloring the whole pencil shaft). On the down-side, the names of the colors and the other lettering on the pencil shafts are very hard to read (in fact I have had to add a magnifying glass to my table-top toolbox). The packaging is not as convenient as the other Caran dAche products I own. Only two of the pencil trays lift out, so you have to dip down into the box for one third of the pencils. The trays that do lift out have loops for lifting, but they are very short and clumsy to use. Strangely for such beautiful pencils, the box is made of cardboard, so I wonder how long it will last. The box is well made however, in the sense that it pads the pencils superbly. Happily so, because the pencil box arrived inadequately packed, actually banging around in the shipping box. Wonderful pencils, less wonderful lettering and packaging.

You cant beat a great product for the great great price. Starving artists only way to go.

these are absolutely amazing pencils! they take a lot of back and forth to build up colour and to fill in the valleys of the paper, but as a finishing layer over something like a polychromos or pablo they are superb. makes for a very smooth intense surface. a pencil doesnt do as well as a light layer by itself, looks grainy with lots of white spots. i am really glad i bought these. i have gone back over elements in finished drawings to smooth out and intensify the colour and the drawings really look amazing!

One of my favorite coloring pencils. Always a favorite when its Caran dache :)

Very nice colors! Performance is precise like a high quality artist pencil also, they are vivid and creamy. I wish they had a bigger set

BEST PENCILS EVER! They blend without me even trying, AND they hold a sharp tip very well!!! These pencils also erase really easily! Yes theyre a little more expensive then the alternative, but theyre %100 worth it!

love it

These pencils are absolutely amazing! They came organized and packaged great! Really good quality and easy to blend. They last long and the tips don’t break easily. It comes with 2 colorless blenders, a paper with some tips on how to blend, and well the pencils of course. It may seem pretty pricey but it’s definitely worth it. The pencils are vibrant and aren’t “waxy”. They cover the paper easily and I definitely recommend them.

These are worth the cost just due to the pigment strength-and they are top quality all the way. I wanted to commend the seller who got these to me 9 days early and from the US to Canada!!!

I admit, they are not cheap, but they are so worth it. Super nice. I feel lucky that I was able to buy them.
