The Caran d'Ache Supracolor set is a single watercolour pencil in grey, designed for professionals and hobbyists who need reliable, high-performance colouring tools. These pencils combine the precision of a fine tip with the expressive blending capability of watercolour, making them suitable for a wide range of creative and technical applications.
Lightfast pigments ensure long-lasting colour retention without fading over time
Water-soluble formula allows smooth blending and layering with water for gradient effects
Single grey pencil ideal for shading, technical drawing, and subtle tonal work

What Makes the Supracolor Stand Out
The Supracolor line is engineered for users who demand consistent pigment density and a responsive tip that holds its shape under pressure. Unlike standard coloured pencils, the water-soluble core enables on-paper blending techniques that replicate traditional watercolour washes, giving artists greater flexibility in their workflow.
Ideal for...
Graphic designers, illustrators, and architects who require precise grey tones for technical sketches, as well as hobbyists exploring watercolour pencil techniques for the first time. The single-pencil format is particularly suited to users who need a targeted replacement or a starter set before committing to a full palette.
Application of Caran d'Ache Supracolor
