Very nice , the color are amazing

I just received my set of Racine 48 Colored Pencils today so I haven't had a chance to try them out yet. But I will very soon. They arrived in excellent condition and are packaged in a beautiful tin container. The colors are beautiful and based on what others have said I'm going to be in for a treat!

This was received with broken pencils inside but zero damage to the metal case. Where is quality control??

Eh. These pencils are fine for their price point, and for coloring book purposes. They are something I’d have no problem giving to a young child. But for me, they are too hard, waxy, and not as smooth or vibrant as their FAR better sister, the Marco Renoir pencils. I’ll pass on these in the future.

if you are buying these for recreational purposes or for a nicely textured pencil for coloring inside of lines and that is it, then by all means, I recommend these to you. if you are looking for a good prismacolor dupe DO NOT BUY THESE. they are smooth and have good color payoff and blend considerably well but after about two sharpens the lead crumbles from putting too much pressure on the lead. literally. crumbles.

These pencils are amazing! The colors are so nice, the pencils don't role and it got here on time unlike my other purchase from a different seller!

I ordered the Raffine, but I received the Renoir. The Renoir are very nice pencils, but there is no color name on the pencils, just a number. I prefer to have the color name on the pencil.
