Conté à Paris Sketching Pencils are an exceptional and extensive range of pencils, including both traditional and unique leads for maximum versatility in line, tone and intensity. Conte pencils are lightfast, durable, and made with natural pigments. This set of 6 drawing pencils includes the following:
- White Conte Pencil 630 – Best used with a sharp lead. This pencil gives a clear line with a transparent colour. Ideal for contrasting, lightening or softening.
- Pierre Noire 2B Pencil – A soft lead with a black that is dense, deep, indelible and matt. It is much appreciated for its use on all types of supports, including sketch pad, craft paper and canvas.
- Graphite HB and 2B Pencils – Particularly smooth, these pencils will not scratch your support, but slide over it.
- Carbon 2B Pencil – Derived from traditional charcoal, but much stronger, this lead will not crumble or leave your hands dirty. Its delicate and highly detailed finish enables all types of perspectives to be drawn accurately.
- Charcoal Pencil 2B – Gives the clean, dense finish of an intense black. Its special characteristic is that it does not break, making it easy to transport. Draws clean, dense lines and blends perfectly with sanguine and sepia pencils.
