Chroma Professional Pencil Case

$248 × 1

The details

A wax-oil hybrid core, which means it lays down like a soft wax pencil but burnishes to the smooth finish of an oil-based lead — and it will not bloom milky white a month later.

The seventy-two colours are arranged as nine value families rather than a rainbow, so building a considered range is a matter of moving along a row.

Leads are 3.8mm, bonded along the full length of the barrel so they survive being dropped.

What’s included

  • 72 colour pencils, 3.8mm core
  • Folding leather-grain case
  • Colour chart with swatch panel
  • Two blending stumps
  • Precision sharpener with two apertures

Care & keeping

Sharpen with a sharp blade or a two-aperture sharpener; avoid battery sharpeners, which heat and soften the core. Store flat and away from radiators.

  • Worth every penny

    I hesitated at the price and then used it every day for six months. The balance is what surprised me — my hand stopped aching after long sessions.

  • Excellent, with one caveat

    Beautiful quality throughout. The case is slightly larger than I expected, so check the measurements if you are tight for desk space.

  • Bought a second as a gift

    Packaging alone made it feel like a considered present. My sister has since bought one for her studio.
