I am often asked to recommend a colored pencil with the following traits, high quality, excellent pigment levels, lightfast results and reasonably priced, when asked this question I always reply with the Lyra Polycolor and Koh-I-Noor Polycolor, both outstanding pencils. In this review we are going to compare both these pencils
On the back of the sleeve there is a color chart showing all the colors in the set that you have purchased. As well as the color chart, there is an explanation of the lightfast ratings they use along with the appropriate lightfast grade beside each pigment in the tin. This is incredibly helpful, meaning that you don’t have to go looking for this information online
This year however I have done it a little bit different, I have completed two lists, a realistic affordable list and a Luxury Art Christmas list.

When I was asked by a viewer of my YouTube channel to review the Lyra Polycolor, I was secretly excited. Of course I knew about the Lyra, well... of their existence, but I had never really considered them as an addition to my already growing collection of fine coloured pencil, so this was an excuse to get them, however, I have since discovered this was an incredibly snooty outlook. This is my review of the Lyra Polycolor Colored Pencils.
