What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm

Confirm the selected listing's contents. The listing also uses both a 3.0 mm core claim and the less specific label “thick”.

Frequently asked questions
How many colours are listed?
The title and feature text describe 174 colours. The listing does not provide a separate colour-by-colour inventory.
What is included besides the pencils?
Accessory claims conflict. One feature lists a sketch pad, colouring book, DIY colour chart, two pencil extenders and four sharpeners, while item details mention a sharpener. Check the selected listing before buying.
