Conte 610 Sanguine Drawing Pencil - singles

Conte 617 Sepia Drawing Pencil - singles
The colour of the Conté "Sepia" pencil is reminiscent to burnt umber. This pencil shades easily. With a sharpened lead, you achieve an accurate and delicate finish. With a half-worn lead, the finish becomes more opaque as the pressure exerted on the pencil increases. It can be used sparingly on its own but it can be blended with the Sanguine, White, Charcoal or Pierre Noire pencils for a more complex finish.
