The Caran d’Ache Pablo 18-Set delivers studio-grade colour in a compact metal box that travels anywhere. Each pencil features a creamy, water-resistant 3.8 mm core packed with high-concentration pigments for superb coverage, crisp detail and clean layering without powdery residue. The FSC™ cedar, hexagonal barrel sits comfortably in the hand and resists rolling, while the colour-matched varnish and printed name/number make selection fast and accurate.

Engineered in Geneva, Pablo pencils are loved by illustrators, designers and fine artists for smooth blending, burnishing and glazing on a wide range of surfaces—fine papers, card and even wood. This 18-colour palette is a versatile starter or travel set, perfectly tuned for sketching on location, colour studies and finished artworks that demand lightfast, permanent results.
