## Description

The Albrecht Dürer artist watercolour pencils from Faber-Castell are ideal for drawing, painting and watercolouring. Faber-Castell's high-quality materials and over 250 years of experience ensure that these watercolour pencils are second to none. With just a few brush strokes, the paint application can be painted fine or flat later and unfolds its full, unique colour strength. By using different paper, the paint application can be completely dissolved and then behaves like the classic watercolour colour. With the individual pens you can refill Faber-Castell cases. You will receive an Aqurell pen with a lead in the writing colour sienna, the Faber Castell colour number is 283. The lead has a thickness of 3.8 mm, the shaft is hexagonal and also fired in the colour sienna. The pen has a diameter of approx. 8 mm and a length of 175 mm. As one of the oldest family-run industrial companies in the world, Faber-Castell is one of the leading manufacturers and marketers of high-quality writing, painting and creative design products. The company owes its position to its traditional commitment to the highest quality and the large number of product innovations and improvements.
