A single triangular colouring pencil from Stockmar in blue-violet (colour 11): a deep violet with a blue tone. Handy for topping up a set, or for keeping a spare of that one colour that always runs out first.

The thick, triangular shape sits comfortably in children's hands and naturally encourages a relaxed pencil grip. The pencil is unlacquered, so you can feel the natural wood. A trusted pencil in Waldorf schools and at the drawing table at home.
