When translated literally from Japanese to English, Irojiten means 'colour dictionary', or 'colour encyclopaedia'. Whichever translation you choose, it is a pretty apt way of describing these pencils, as each set contains three volumes of coloured pencils, and each volume has its own index of colours.
Each volume is designed to look and open like a book, with an elastic closure to keep the top closed and all the pencils in place. The spine and cover of each book carries the Irojiten branding and the volume number and name in silver hotfoil print.
The pencils themselves are high-quality wax-based pencils which blend and layer easily without the waxy build-up associated with cheaper pencils. Each pencil is coated with a layer of brilliant white paint and then has the end dipped to match the colour of the lead. All barrel print is silver hotfoil embossed to match the display boxes.
Orders placed before 3pm Monday to Friday will normally be sent out the same day.
FREE Royal Mail Standard delivery for orders over £100, and just £3.50 for smaller orders. Royal Mail Priority is available as an option, for £3.50 on orders over £100, £5.50 on smaller orders. Express available for £9, or FREE with any order over £400. No delivery surcharges for Northern Ireland, Highlands & Islands or anywhere else!
International deliveries vary in cost, so you'll need to add the items you want to your basket, and enter the checkout to see the options for delivery. Prices and payment methods will reflect your country, and many countries have all taxes and duties included to make things easier and more predictable.
For all orders outside the UK, heavy orders may cost more to send, but the shipping cost will be displayed in the checkout before you commit.
