Haha I can imagine the workers at Derwent brainstorming the colour names, one saying 'That is mango' when other goes 'No, it's more like saffron' and the boss says 'Okay, we call it Saffron Mango and that's the end of discussion'. Other one is the Lincoln green, like 'Hey, my dad use to have car that colour, it was a Lincoln' 😁 I really liked the pineapple, turkish delight and licoln. Thanks for the video! 🥰
I love that! I can't imagine how a committee could decide on those colours as most meetings I've been in find it difficult to even choose where to order lunch from. 😅
I had my suspicions that there was an Aussie expat on the Derwent team when I saw the name ' Bondi Blue ' ...(I always wondered with a tinge of jealousy how people got to be a pencil colour namer )love it lol...and being light is a great travel pencil bonus !
I’m glad to hear things are settling down for you with your mom’s illness. I just purchased the 27 new chromoflows from Bromley’s so I guess I also missed one pencil. They must have it away from the others marked as new. This was my first time buying from them but the process was easy and I also had freebies added to my cart. I hope they don’t take too long arriving in Canada and customs doesn’t charge too much. Thank you for talking about them. It’s always nice to have another art supply store on my list.
There are still issues with my mom but at least I am having more of a schedule. I don't know what happened either to the 1 chromaflow! I swear it said 28 items in the basket. Maybe it was out and did a final calculation at the end? It was a seamless process with Bromley's, though. They sent it out so quickly, I didn't get hit by duty and I think I got it in in under 2 weeks.
Actually all 150 will be open stock. Watch the video by Colour with Claire. She clears it all up. Hopefully they will be available in Canada or Jackson’s soon. Is the shipping from Bromley’s cheaper than Cult Pens? Keep creating 💜💛💙
Oh yay! I couldn't imagine why they wouldn't offer the full set open stock. That's great news. Thank you. Can't wait until they are available here although the art stores I tend to go to in Toronto are so packed as it is I wonder if they will stock another line. I know Aboveground doesn't have them as open stock but does sell the sets with other Derwent pencils available as open stock.
And yes Bromley's was cheaper. The postage was about the same but the price of the pencils was cheaper per pencil. So for just under same price as it woul've cost with Cult pens I was able to get the wrap, that was more practical for me, and the free erasers plus a discount coupon.

@@eileenreillyarts1229 I’ve only seen the sets at Deserres and they only carry Inktense and Watercolour pencils open stock at the moment.
