Derwent Charcoal Pencils 12 Pack

Create beautifully expressive sketches and tonal studies with the Derwent Charcoal Pencils. Combining the natural richness of traditional charcoal with the precision and ease of a pencil, this versatile range is ideal for artists, students, illustrators and hobbyists working across a variety of creative settings.

Each pencil features a strong cedar wood round barrel that sits comfortably in the hand, making it perfect for longer drawing sessions in classrooms, studios or at home. Inside, a carefully balanced blend of natural charcoal particles and fine clay creates a wonderfully smooth drawing experience with rich, velvety marks and excellent tonal control.

Perfect for expressive sketching, life drawing, portrait work and detailed observational studies, these pencils make it easy to build soft shading, subtle transitions and dramatic contrast. For deeper tones, simply wet an already worked area, allow it to dry, then layer more charcoal over the top. Highlights and softened edges can be lifted gently with a putty rubber for added depth and realism.

Available in multiple tonal grades, this range allows artists to choose the ideal depth of shade for their work, from soft light tones through to rich, dramatic darks.
