About this manufacturer

The finest quality from Britain. Founded in 1832 as the first pencil manufacturer in Britain, a country with a long history of pencil making, the Derwent brand of artist-grade colored pencils was established in 1938.

Located in Keswick, in the Lake District of England, adjacent to the Borrowdale Valley where graphite (the raw material for pencil leads) was first discovered in the early 16th century, Derwent has been producing art pencils for the world for over 160 years. Their high quality, achieving a high lightfastness rate compliant with international color standards and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), makes them top-grade even for professionals.

They offer a wide variety of pencils, including watercolor pencils, pastels, traditional sketch pencils made from natural graphite and charcoal, and drawing pencils that reproduce sepia effects.

From Amazon

A set of water-soluble colored pencils and a pencil holder from Derwent, a British stationery and art supply manufacturer. When wet with water after drawing on paper, it produces a translucent, ink-like color. Of course, it can also be used like regular colored pencils, drawing on dry paper, allowing for various artistic expressions.

Derwent Inktense pencils are water-soluble colored pencils suitable for a variety of uses. Mixing them with water creates vibrant, ink-like colors. They become water-resistant after drying.

The high-density pigments change from a dry state to a translucent hue, and the color sets after drying. Therefore, it's possible to layer colors without affecting previously applied vibrant layers.

Suitable for drawing on paper and fabric in various art and craft projects.

To ensure complete color fixation, make sure all pigment is dissolved in the water. If there is any undissolved, dry pigment when layering water, the color will run.

They can be used like watercolors, and layering and glazing are possible like with acrylic paints. The vivid colors can make your artwork stand out.
