Coloured Pencil Leads

Coloured leads (also colored leads) are available in a variety of colours (obviously) and sizes (for both mechanical pencils and lead holders). Differently from classic "black" leads, coloured leads are not made of graphite: they are made of particular pigmented compounds that make these leads more fragile (especially in the thinner sizes), softer (usually they wear down faster) and in some cases less erasable than the graphite ones.
