Description
IROJITEN Colour pencil 100 colour set
—(Set contains First, Second, Third Editions Plus New 10 colours)
“Irojiten” is the Japanese expression for “colour encyclopaedia or dictionary.”
IROJITEN colour pencils are suited for detailed drawing such as: Botanical art, Wild life sketching, technical drawing, etc…
Because these pencil leads are more firm than other colouring pencils, you can sharpen the pencil lead to a finer point than softer, colour pencils, allowing you to draw finer details.
These editions have an outstanding look and feel and give the
impression of being a high-end “color encyclopedia.”
The exquisite
enamel finish of the pencils, the packaging, and outstanding quality of the
product have made Irojiten an all-time classic in Japan.
These sets are
perfect for the artist as well as the collector.
