Developed for professional artists and illustrators, Caran d'Ache Pablo pencils offer the precision, colour performance and durability required for fine art, commercial illustration, graphic design, botanical studies, portraiture and archival artwork. Their rich pigmentation and extensive 120-colour range provide exceptional creative flexibility and colour accuracy.

Lightfastness

Pablo pencils are recognised for their excellent lightfastness, helping colours remain vibrant and resistant to fading over time when artwork is properly displayed and stored. This makes them a popular choice for artists producing exhibition, commission and archival-quality work.

Waterproof Performance

Unlike water-soluble pencils, Pablo pencils feature a waterproof permanent lead, allowing artists to create crisp, stable colour layers that will not dissolve when exposed to water. This makes them suitable for mixed media applications and detailed work where colour permanence is essential.
