product: FELISSIMO 500
category: Coloured Pencils
description: “Sometimes I imagine colours as if they were living ideas, being of pure reason with which to communicate,” French painter Paul Cézanne once said. With its subtle design, this set of coloured pencils offers itself as a special frame for experiencing an outstanding range of colours. The set comprises 500 tints, tones, shades and hues, which in their entirety form a fas­cinating, visually appealing wall of colours. The pencils are traditionally crafted in the districts of Arakawa and Katsushika in eastern Tokyo. The wooden square body of the pencils is made with refined precision and love for detail. They boast a surface that is pleasant to the touch, well-balanced and therefore easy to hold, much like Japanese Hashi chopsticks. The foil-stamped matte pencils feature high-quality smooth-gliding 3.5 mm thick leads. The subtle and delicate colour gradations of this set are also an expression of local craftsmanship as they are created based on sophisticated colour-blending techniques. For a good overview, the entire set of 500 coloured pencils is divided into 25 different palettes. These refer to the distinctive characters of the colours with thematic names such as “Autumn”, “Love”, “Serenity” and “Urban”, as well as specialty colours such as fluorescent, metallic and pastel.
