I love these oil-based professional colored pencils. They glide on easily, have vibrant colors, and are easy to blend. The leads are long lasting. The applied color has good light-fastness. The set of sixty pencils gives you a good selection of colors, and with its superior blending capability, the color palette you can create is endless. Another bonus I find with the Faber Castel pencil line is that the colors are consistent across products. This means that the color names and pigments for the Polychromos oil pencils are the same as those for their Albrecht Durer watercolor pencils. The set, packaged in a metal tin, arrived in perfect shape. For those who are considering purchasing the wax-based Prismacolor Premier colored pencils, which cost less than the Polychromos, I'll provide a little comparison here, since I own both. There have been many complaints about product control with the Mexico-manufactured Prismacolors. Lead breakage is a problem, especially if you drop a pencil. This is because the lead is not glued to the wood. The barrels may be chipped or warped. The lead cores are sometimes off-center too. But in the German-manufactured Polychromos, quality control is excellent, the lead is attached firmly to the wood, and I have experienced no lead breakage or other anomalies. The Prismacolor pencils have softer leads than the Polychromos and wear down far faster. That being said, I enjoy using both brands of pencil. They both have bright colors, and they even blend together well. If I have to give any negative comment, it's that the Polychromos pencils (and the Prismacolors as well) have round barrels, so they roll around on a table easily. A hexagonal shape would have been better not only to control the roll but also to hold them more firmly. But that's such a minor complaint that it doesn't detract from my five-star rating. Read more

I am impressed by the fast delivery from amazon Japan, product delivered in perfect condition. Product was carefully packaged and protected. Thank you. I am grateful. Read more

These penciled are great. They don’t break, colors are bright and go on smooth not chalky or like graphite. They don’t have a good green or a brown at all. I wish the set came with a blender pencil, but Injust used the white. I’ve tried other brands and these are the best quality. They’re fun and functional. Read more

Okay, here begins the fangirling over my took-me-three-years-to-get-them Polychromos coloring pencils. I LOVE THEM!!! I did buy them a special fabric case, since I did not intend to keep them in the tin (which is actually a nice tin, by the way). I love colored pencils, and have a lot of different sets. Cheapies, mid-ranges, and my beloved Polychromos. I do tend to save these pencils for special artwork I plan to display. Color-fastness and all that good stuff. Once you sharpen these, you quickly learn they hold their points for a good bit of time. I use a lightish touch with them, but it goes beyond that I'm not pressing hard; they are made to last, and they do. They blend well, layer well, have rich pigmentation, and have a good-sized lead so they aren't going to get you through one picture and need replacing. The colors are gorgeous, with a full range. They are not super-hard, but you can't call them soft, either. They are what you would expect an oil pencil to be. But these are a high quality oil pencil, so I applaud their functionality as versatile colored pencils. As stated, they are vibrant, layer and blend, and feel really good in the hand. They do cost a bit, and it took awhile for me to fit them into the budget. I'm poor, so some will just order these and not have to do without some other supply they need more. These are worth the price, and a plus is that they are available open stock. I find that very attractive. If you are not sure you will like a harder pencil like a Polychromos, try buying one of the small sets, or a few pencils open stock, and see if you like them. If you do, start saving and looking for sales. You won't regret it. Quality is worth paying for. Read more

These pencils are incredibly smooth, blend like a dream, and offer rich, vibrant pigments that make artwork pop. The oil-based cores provide excellent layering without waxy buildup, making them perfect for detailed work and professional-quality results. The metal tin is a nice touch for organization, keeping the pencils secure and easy to access. The durability of the leads is also impressive—they resist breaking even with heavy pressure. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned artist, this set is a fantastic investment. Read more

São lápis profissionais, portanto entrega o que se espera deles, tem ótima cobertura no papel, excelente lightfast,etc É um lápis a base de óleo, então é possível criar alguns efeitos a mais do que os lápis escolares, por ser possível usar óleo mineral como blender, além de ter pimentos mais concentrados e cores mais vivas. Pode ser usado em vários tipos de papel, mas papeis de boa qualidade com gramatura acima de 120 são excelentes para esse tipo de mídia Assim como outros lápis profissionais são caros, mas os lápis da Faber Castell é possível encontrar promoções Read more

So I’ve used quite a few colored pencils. Prismacolor was my favorite because I thought it could not get any better than Prismacolor. Come to figure out, it’s no longer my favorite colored pencil anymore. Polychromos is expensive, but the investment is worth it as these are very high quality. I’ve not had a single breakage after 4 full color drawings and they hold a point for a LONG time, they are very pigmented and layer beautifully, no wax bloom, beautiful colors, nice thick core, easy to hold and color with, they sharpen well and not to mention the lovely shavings smell of cedar wood! Knowing that each other is lightfast with no fade for a lifetime is icing on the cake. Polychromos is the best colored artist pencil I’ve ever used. I highly recommend these colored pencils to anyone who has the patience to use these correctly with the right paper to just buy these! It is not a waste of money and I’m getting a larger set.

Love how smooth and vibrant the colours go on. Like that the holder is metal rather than cardboard. Read more

I was a little leary about spending the money to get the Faber Castell Polychromos when I already use Prismacolor Premieres, but they were well worth every penny. They don’t break easily, they go on paper like butter, and they’re very easy to blend. And the colors are highly saturated. Both brands are likewise blendable, together, though one is wax based, and the other are oil based. For me, Polychromos are better for detail, while Prismacolors are better for laying down color in larger areas. I’m absolutely thrilled with the Faber Castell Polychromos, and am very happy that I spent the money to get them. Read more
