Prismacolor Premier Soft Core Colored Pencils, 72 Colored Pencils (4.5/5 stars, currently on sale for $47.99—that’s 60% off its usual price of $120.77)
KF on KND Editor’s Note: The tin contains multiple trays, so you’re getting a much wider variety of colors than what you see in the photo. This is another set I bought for my son (at a much higher cost!) and he’s very happy with it. Prismacolor is the go-to brand for quality colored pencils and pens among professional artists, so while they tend to be pricey they’re always of the highest quality. If you compare the prices for this set in brick-and-mortar stores, you’ll find this current Amazon price is a steal.
