Derwent Lightfast Pencil – Peridot (Yellow)

Yellow pencils are the first to go. They shift, they wash out, and by the time you've framed the piece it looks like a different colour entirely. Frustrating when you know exactly the yellow you wanted.

Derwent Lightfast Peridot (Yellow) holds its ground. The formulation keeps the colour stable for up to 100 years under museum conditions. What you lay down is what stays. Rich, opaque, and true — no ghosting through the paper, no gradual drift toward orange.

It's built for artists who layer. Build up passages of colour with confidence because each layer sits on top cleanly rather than muddying into the one below. Detailed work, broad washes, both work.
