Product Description
In response to artists' requests Derwent have introduced two new drawing accessories, the Derwent Burnisher and Derwent Blender. These versatile tools allow you to create highly subtle or deeply intense colour effects which would otherwise be difficult and time-consuming to achieve The Derwent Burnisher  is a hard, colourless pencil which is applied on top of existing layers of colour to create a rich, polished finish. It both seals and accentuates the colour without changing its values. Ideal for adding a sparkle to glass, metal or still life subjects, the Burnisher makes a brilliant addition to your pencil collection. The Derwent Blender  is a soft, colourless pencil used to mix and blend colours together to create rich, vivid tones. Quick and easy to apply, the Blender helps you to achieve the exact colour you want in a smooth, even tone. The Blender can also be used to soften hard edges and to blend out individual pencil strokes. This blister pack includes two burnishers, two blenders, a Derwent eraser and a pencil sharpener.

This blister pack contains two kinds of pencil:
First a blender. This is essentially a pigment free pencil, it is the waxy carrier for pigment and that is it. With this pencil you can smooth two (or more) colours that have already been laid down on the page and mix them together. I find this useful in many circumstances where I don't want a distinct line between colours (e.g. clouds in the sky, smoke from a chimney, flesh tones in a portrait).
Secondly, a burnisher. This gives your work a subtle sheen. It's not glossy like a varnish, but a lovely subtle shimmer. I'm particularly fond of using it where light is hitting a body of water, it really gives a lift to your work. There is a slight change in the colour/depth on the page when you add the burnisher, but it's not dramatic. I also use the burnisher with Derwent Inktense 24 Tin range of pencils. If you lay down the burnisher on the page it is waxy enough to resist water - so with the Inktense when you create a wash of colour you can leave gaps in the wash by protecting the page with the burnisher. I'm sure this would work with Derwent Watercolour 72 Pencil Set in a Wooden Box range of pencils too.
Sharpener and eraser are also standard Derwent quality (i.e. very high) and are an added bonus. Always handy items.

Good items in one neat package. Derwent burnishers and blenders are always decent quality. The pencil sharpener is surprisingly good quality and comes with a good soft eraser. Well recommended.

Excellent service and swift delivery. Not yet had time to try it out, but it all looks good and has good reviews elsewhere.
