Description
The Caran d'Ache Luminance 6901 20 piece colour pencil set is a combination of the highest lightfastness and the smoothness of a permanent lead. Every shade has been formulated using finely-ground pigments chosen for their purity, intensity and resistance to UV. Colours can be blended, burnished and layered on a variety of surfaces. The casing is made of California Cedar from managed forests. The smoothness of the Luminance 6901 leads require the use of a well- sharpened pencil sharpener. The pencil cap indicates the colour of the pencil lead.

They are actually AMAZING and yes, ridiculously expensive! But I have used every other top colored pencil brand and these are the best. The colors lay down beautifully. Using these is a joyful experience; they are smooth and vibrant- almost creamy without smudging. Highly recommend! The price …. I know. Just buy the set of 20 basic pencils and blend to make the shade you want. The white pencil is especially fabulous for creating pastels. I love these!!!

When I first got these I was quite disappointed - the pencils were a bit scratchy they laid down less smoothly than my Polychromos and they were insanely expensive. However after using these for some time I realized that they are best pencils I have for blending. Unlike other pencils that just layer one color on another, these are able to create a new color when you blend. They are among the most pigmented and soft pencils I own (I own Luminance, Polychromos, Prismacolor, Lyra Rembrandt, Blick Studio and Crayola). I do not like the color range, the biggest set you can get is only 76 colors. I bought the 20 from Amazon and later purchased the 76 on Black Friday from Jerrys. I feel that pinks are really limited and wish there were more greens and blues as well. I also love that they use FSC wood meaning that it’s made from sustainable sources. From a value standpoint if you are using these in a coloring book like me they aren’t the best value. They Prismacolor and Polychromos have a much bigger range of colors, are cheaper and do a reasonable job of blending. However these are the best money can buy in terms of blending and lightfastness IMHO. If you are considering buying colored pencils for coloring check the type of paper used in the coloring books. I found that these pencils worked well on Menuet De Bonheur, Hanna Karlzons books, Twilight Garden which have a matt finish and not as well on Tenderful Enchantments which has a slick surface.

Very bright pigment for drawing. It is opaque so also good for toned or black papers. Great quality.

I am a colorist. I gave into temptation and ordered a first set of 20, and knew quickly I wanted more. These are soft, richly pigmented, and lovely in the hand. Their top of the line reputation is well deserved. IMO, beginner colorists should start with less expensive, but soft pencils like Prismacolor, or Coloursoft, or even Black Widow. But if you have colored awhile, buy a small set of these and fall under their spell. And you will likely want more of these. If you know you’ll be coloring or drawing as a permanent part of your life, these will be worth their cost. Use these along with Derwent Lightfast pencils for a fuller color palette.

These pencils live up to the positive reviews. They are smooth and apply a lot of pigment. They are comfortable to use and blend nicely. I’m going to end up finding a larger set than the 20 pencils. My only complaint is because of their thickness I can’t use the rechargeable pencil sharpener I just bought but ordered a manual sharpener with a larger sharpening hole.

The Caran D’Ache Luminance is a wonderful colored pencil in every way. It blends and layers like a dream. The quality control of these pencils are insane and a lot of love has been put into these to make them special. I like the color selection in the 20 set and I’d love to get the portrait set next. The barrel of the pencil is sleek and professional. I don’t like that the color name is so small on the tip that it’s ridiculously hard to read! The huge plus is that the color of the barrel does match the color of the pigment it puts down from how I perceive the color. This is the very colored pencil that no other budget company can compete with in their large claims for lightfastness, in of which means they lie to upsale their pencils. Caran D’Ache does not do that! These are industry standard proven that these are lightfast with no fake claims that colors will not fade for 100 years under museum standard conditions. When it comes to lightfastness, these are proven to have the maximum lightfastness meaning they are the best of the best. The Luminance pencils are a sturdy and comfortable pencil. They perform as great as they look. With all these positives about these pencils, why are they 4 stars? It’s because I cannot justify why a 20 set of colored pencils as of July 2025 are $80! I cannot justify this value for the money on the Luminance no matter how exceptional they are at what they are or what they do. I did not pay so much for these in April 2025 when it was only $47.17. Do yourself a favor and wait till they go on sale even if they get to the $55 -$60 mark. That’s when you’ll truly get what you pay for and get a great value for the money. If you’re looking for a cheaper alternative, go for the Faber-Castell Polychromos which are my personal favorites as you get more colors for the money or more budget friendly with way more colors, the Prismacolor Premier (Just sort out the lightfast colors for these if you want to use them in a professional sense as they will work just fine even with how often they wear down or break.)
