Product Description
The Caran d'Ache Luminance 6901 colour pencil is a combination of the highest lightfastness and the smoothness of a permanent lead. Every shade has been formulated using finely-ground pigments chosen for their purity, intensity and resistance to UV. Colours can be blended and burnished, layered on a variety of surfaces. The casing is made of California Cedar from managed forests. The smoothness of the Luminance 6901 leads require the use of a well-sharpened pencil sharpener. 001 White.

The seller was prompt in mailing out the order, and the packaging of the pencil was wonderful. Several layers of bubble wrapped around the pencil and then placed in a box that fit perfectly. They went to great lengths to make sure there would be no jarring or bumping. Because of this attention to detail, no broken core. Compare this to another open stock pencil that I ordered that same day, from a different seller. It was just put in a bubble wrap envelope, that was much too big and yep, broken core on that one. I so hate having to heat my pencils because the seller was careless.
Thank you for the intact core on this one!
I'm an adult coloring book fan and wanted this for blending and brilliance for white areas. The smoothness is beyond description. This pencil melts like butter on the page and blends beautifully. It does soften the affect of your underlying colors, so that is something to be aware of. It is fabulous for creating pastel shades. I've heard for more brilliance when wanting a white area, that by using over another white, such as a white prisma color, really makes this pop. I am using this along with prisma colors at thus time.
Now that I've experienced one of the Luminance pencils, I wish I could have more colors to use.

muito bem construído esse segmento do lápis Luminance,
a madeira firme para segurar e suave no momento de apontar, as minas se mantem intactas .
O traço extremamente suave e macio, uma ótima pigmentação e cobertura.
Estou muito surpreso de como é diferente e superior o material em relação as outras marcas.
Certamente vou comprar outras cores.
