The names of the colors are written in Chinese and English in the top of the tin. The names appear in the order that the pencils are arranged in the tin. There are no numbers or names written in English on the pencils. There is something in Chinese, but since I do not speak nor read that language I have no idea what it says. I labeled each pencil so that when if I accidentally mix them up in the tin, I will know what color I used previously.
The pencils sharpen okay if one has a good sharpener. I used a small handheld one, and had no problem with breakage. Rule of thumb: Make sure the blades on your sharpener are sharp. Using a graphite pencil once in a while helps remove some of the colored pencil build-up. The thing that I really liked is that I was able to color quite a bit of a design before my pencils needed to be sharpened again.
There is a decent assortment of colors which is good for a starter or basic set. I do like that there are three shades of blues and greens. I color lots of nature scenes and like a variety of shades in those colors. A few of the colors are very similar. For instance, the chrome yellow and the yellow aren’t too different.
The color goes down fairly smooth. Blending is okay, and I do like the way they layer. Nice. I found that some of the colors seem to be creamier than others. Once in a while the creamier ones are a bit scratchy, and then smooth again. I did not experience a waxy build-up like I sometimes do with my Prismacolor Premiers.
A nice hinged tin provides a safe home for the pencils which are arranged in a single layer. I like that because one layer is so much easier to deal with and it takes up less space on a desk top etc. The tin, measured in inches, is 7 ¾ wide x7¼ high x 3/8 deep. This is nice for a pick-up and go outing or for a travel tin.
I think it would be nice if the gold and silver were replaced with more usable and versatile colors. I use gold and silver in gel pens quite often; however, I seldom ever use those colors in colored pencils.
