Pastelli Faber-Castell Jumbo Grip Multi 110912

Faber-Castell Jumbo Grip Multi coloured pencils feature a thick triangular barrel shaped to fit comfortably in small hands. The patented Soft-Grip zone reduces slipping and ensures comfortable, fatigue-free drawing. The water-soluble pigments allow you to draw and then add water with a brush to produce soft watercolour effects. The set contains 12 individual colours in a cardboard box and includes space on each pencil to write a name.

Advantages

The jumbo triangular design supports a secure grip while the Soft-Grip zone prevents slipping. Thick, light-resistant leads deliver strong colour coverage and are SV-bonded for improved break resistance. The pigments are completely water-soluble for mixed-media techniques, the varnish is water-based and environmentally friendly, and many stains can be washed out of fabrics.

Suitable for

• Preschool and early-primary children learning to hold a pencil
• Colouring, drawing and simple mixed-media watercolour techniques
• Craft projects and school assignments

How to use

Hold the pencil using the triangular barrel and Soft-Grip zone for a steady, comfortable grip. Apply colour to paper as usual; for watercolour effects, draw with the pencil and then blend the pigment by brushing over the drawing with a wet paintbrush. Allow layers to dry between applications when building up washes.

Recommendations

Store pencils horizontally to reduce breakage and keep them out of direct sunlight to preserve pigment lightfastness. Use on suitable paper for wet techniques to avoid excessive buckling.
