Prismacolor

Premium colored pencils

Prismacolor is a brand of art supplies, best known for its colored pencils with soft, waxy cores that blend smoothly and layer richly.

Artists and illustrators favor them for vibrant, saturated color: She did the whole portrait in Prismacolor.

The brand also makes markers and other drawing materials.

Like Kleenex or Band-Aid, the name sometimes stands in for the product category itself.
