Available in sets of 12, 20, 40, 76 or 100, Luminance 6901™ coloured pencils have a round body made from the highest quality FSC™-certified cedar wood. The wax lead is permanent and creamy smooth, providing exceptional colourfastness. Open wide the field of creativity with this rainbow of Swiss Made colours!

The Full Blender, for even more intense colour

A Blender pencil and a Full Blender are included in the 76-colour set of Luminance 6901™ pencils. You can perfect your gradients and blends by rubbing the Full Blender over your Luminance 6901™ drawings.
The Blender is a colourless, silky-smooth oil and wax-based medium that can unify, blend and intensify colours. Its water-resistant texture enhances UV resistance for even longer-lasting results. The Full Blender adds intensity to drawings made with coloured pencils, as well as with graphite pencils and Caran d'Ache wax pastels.

Elevate your portraits with Luminance 6901™ pencils

Do you draw portraits? Luminance 6901™ pencils are ideal for portraiture because of their incomparable UV resistance and certified lightfastness. Not to mention, a palette of new colours has been introduced to complement the existing ones. With all the possible gradients, blends, and colour superimpositions, Luminance coloured pencils are perfect for creating realistic portraits of people and animals.
Your portraits can become even more vibrant when you combine media. Add watercolour effects with Supracolor™ Soft Aquarelle coloured pencils. Or, for hatching or for brilliant colour application on different surfaces, use Pablo™ pencils by Caran d'Ache.

A boxed set of 80 Luminance 6901™ colours

A must-have gift for art enthusiasts is the Luminance 6901™ set of 80 coloured pencils from Caran d'Ache.
The set includes a total of 76 shades, plus 4 repeat shades, accompanied by 2 Bright Full Blenders and 2 Grafwood graphite pencils (HB, 5B): everything you need (except paper!) for drawing, shading and layering.
These supplies come in a magnificent mahogany-coloured birch wood box. Three removable trays, each holding 28 pencils, are fitted with high-density foam wedges to provide optimum support. The final classic touches come from the silkscreen printing (on the box's interieur and exterior) and gold-tone latch system.
