Set of 12 Charcoal Pencils — deep blacks, white highlights and warm earth tones for working with light and volume.
This set brings together several charcoal tones, allowing you to build a drawing with progressive contrasts:
dense shadows,
bright highlights,
dry textures,
and warmer transitions in volumes.
The black pencils are used to lay down main masses and deep areas,
while sanguine and sepia add a more organic warmth to the line.
The white pencils help to bring back light,
especially on toned paper where reliefs appear more directly.
The wood-cased format offers better stability than raw charcoal,
with greater precision in details,
fine lines,
and progressive reworkings.
Suitable for sketching,
anatomical study,
observational drawing,
or working with materials and textures.

🤍 Ikane Studio Tip
White works particularly well when applied last,
on an already constructed surface.
A few highlights are often enough to bring out the light without saturating the drawing.
