Block Design Gradient Sketching Pencils

Description

Block Design Gradient Sketching Pencils in a range of graphite grades, for all drawing styles and techniques.

This set of 6 sketching pencils features a smooth gradient of green tones, each one carefully selected from Pantone swatches to represent a different graphite grade – from light and precise to dark and expressive.

The idea came from lead designer Tara during a life drawing class:

“Having had to search through my traditional grey set each time I needed a 6B in place of a HB or 2H, it occurred to me there must be an easier way to differentiate the pencils. The constant scramble for the required pencil slowed down my sketching, interrupting the creative flow.”

Block Design gradient sketching pencils are manufactured in Nottingham, UK, by Chambers Pencils, a family-run business with over 100 years of experience in pencil-making.

• 6 grades included: 2H, HB, B, 2B, 4B, 6B
• Pencil size: 165 x 7.3 mm
