Faber-CastellCreative Studio Goldfaber Color Pencils - Tin of 48, 48 Colors

Great colors. Very durable. I’m very satisfied!

Beautiful colors and pigment. Easy to use pencils for beginners and professional. The quality is better than any other brand. They are still made in the same town in Germany after all of these years.

The media could not be loaded. Mind = blown! These pencils glide like a dream, the colors are so lush and pigmented, they practically dance on the page. A must-have for anyone who loves to create!

Smooth like butter, vibrant colors and tip doesn’t break under my heavy hand!

amazing colors, i'd buy again

I had these fabercastle pencils before and they were really high quality these ones feel really average which i didnt expect!

These Goldfaber pencils are wonderful! Great for details and layering. Very vibrant hues without having to press hard.These are my new favorite colored pencils. I wish they had tins with more in them 48 is now the highest. Worth every penny and so glad that I bought them.

I have always done my drawings in graphite pencil. Everyone suggested to me that I try doing my drawings in color. Since I don't care for working with paints, I decided to give color pencils a go. I didn't know if I was going to like them or even be good with them, so I purchased an inexpensive set to start with: the Castle Arts 120 pencils set (shown). I did some basic coloring book pages with them and really liked the numerous color selection. However, I kept reading and watching videos on good the other brands were. I just happened to come across a set of 24 Prismacolor Premier pencils that weren't that expensive. I started using them, and all I can say is it was quite a difference in the way they performed. I also decided to purchase a few sets of the Black Widow colored pencils. They were really nice as well. Then I came across a set of 12 Faber-Castell Goldfaber pencils. I purchased them to give them a try. That's when I realized the quality of the Faber-Castell Goldfaber pencils. They are simply amazing. And quite frankly, I truly prefer them over every other pencil I have tried. They lay down smoothly, nice color, they blend and layer very well (better than the Prismacolor in my opinion). I saw the set of 48 and had to have them. Someday I will invest in a set of Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils. But for now, the Goldfabers are doing just fine for me.I attached a picture I am currently working on. It is not finished, I just started it and have a ways to go. Maybe when I finish it I will update this post. But I do believe you will not be disappointed with them, especially for the price. Wish you luck.
