Capture Authentic Form with Artist-Grade Sanguine
Conté à Paris Sanguine Medicis drawing pencil is imported directly from authorized US retailers and authorized brand partners. This pencil features the darkest sanguine shade, with a slightly reduced red oxide content compared to other sanguine pencils. Its unique properties allow for accurate drawing, with a transparent color that lets the paper's texture show through when drawn lightly. As pressure is applied, opacity increases.
The 5mm thick lead provides versatility for both detailed linework and broader shading. When sharpened, it allows for precise strokes, while a worn lead increases opacity with pressure. This makes it excellent for capturing form and texture in figure drawing and general sketching. The round body and contoured grip ensure comfortable handling during extended art sessions.
For artists in India seeking authentic art supplies, this imported Conté à Paris pencil offers a distinct drawing experience. All customs duties and GST are pre-paid and included in the listed price. Orders are shipped via ExpressBox with tracking, ensuring reliable delivery across Indian pincodes.

Ideal For Figure Drawing & Sketching
