Well, today these pencils are no longer new and quite used, but if you look in the chronological order of the posts and at the time of this drawing, they could be said to be quite virgin. Pencils made in China, budget segment. The entire set (36 pcs) is about the same price as one Faber-Castell pencil. It says "Premium Quality" on the packaging. And what, I believe that the premium :) In any case, they suit me, as a non-professional.
