{"product_id":"faber-castell-polychromos-colored-pencil-sets","title":"Polychromos Colored Pencil Sets","description":"\u003cp\u003eProfessional illustrators keep reaching for the same pencils because lightfastness actually matters when work needs to last. Faber-Castell formulates Polychromos with high-quality pigments that resist fading under exhibition lighting and UV exposure, protecting finished pieces for decades rather than months. Thick, oil-based cores lay down saturated color that blends smoothly without the waxy buildup that plagues student-grade pencils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBreak-resistant 3.8mm leads withstand the pressure of layering and burnishing techniques essential for photorealistic rendering. The oil binder makes marks waterproof and smudge-proof once applied, crucial for mixed media work where you're layering watercolor washes or working over pencil with other media. Colors maintain their intensity whether you're working light or applying heavy pressure for deep saturation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose from sets of 12, 24, or 36 pencils in protective metal tins. Smaller sets provide core colors for studies and travel work; larger sets expand your range for complex color mixing and specialized illustration projects. Each pencil is individually replaceable as you deplete colors you use most frequently, making these sets genuinely expandable rather than disposable.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faber-Castell","offers":[{"title":"set of 12","offer_id":47978353623269,"sku":"67109","price":30.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"set of 24","offer_id":47978353656037,"sku":"67110","price":60.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"set of 36","offer_id":47978353688805,"sku":"67111","price":91.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s67109.jpg?v=1761724290","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/faber-castell-polychromos-colored-pencil-sets","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
