Speedball Art Products Genuine Leather Storage Case for Pencils, Markers, Pens and Art Supplies (Holds Up to 72 Standard Pencils, Antique Brown)

These are beautiful cases and nice for transporting my colored pencils, markers, pens, and other. I love having them laying open while I’m doodling or coloring and people will come by and ask “where did I get that case of pencils?!” Two things that need to change: 1) The amount of pencils advertised to fit. My 60-set of Faber Castell pencils barely fit. Yes, fitting 3 or 4 pencils in each loop is what’s advertised, but in no way should it be used to transport. If you look fully sharpened pencils (like me), then it’s just not conducive to trying to force pencils to fit in that case. Widen the case in order to add more loops, or lower the advertised count. Lyra Rembrandt colored pencils are the only colored pencils I have that comfortably fit the advertised count in all the cases I purchased: 48 canvas, 72/120 leather. Polychromos and Caran d’ache had to be forced, and the Derwent Coloursofts, I didn’t even try. The more comfortable pencils are thicker, so it’s not sensible to think that the maximum count—as it stands—can fit in the cases. 2) The thickness of the case. Global Art has the colored pencil cases design on lockdown in comparison to what I’ve researched sold in the U.S. It would be great if the cases (especially the 24/48 ones) could be designed to be thinner. I like carrying some pencils around with me on a regular bases, but the case is sooo thick, it’s hard to fit in my purse. With coloring books making #1 on the bestseller lists, the sales of coloring utensils increase, and more people probably want their collections in a portable feature. I will keep an eye out for a more portable case. Finally, these cases are sold at an amazing price point and value. It’s so amazing that a company actually cares enough to keep a price affordable. It makes purchasing this case one of the smartest decisions one can make this year. :-)

Have to get more of these! Compact, sturdy and very well made. While traveling with these, Ill have no broken leads. Slots are snug so no rattling pencils. If you have watercolor, charcoals or any soft core pencils this is a plus. Even has snaps to secure zippers. No rattling or coming unzipped. I have alot of pens & pencils and these will work great for traveling & storage. Love these and will definitely get more!

The case does hold 72 pencils, or thin pens like Stabilos, but if you are buying this case for thicker gel pens then it will not hold the advertised amount. It will only hold about 48 gel pens, which is what I bought it for. See photo for the comparison. You can see on the left side that it will only hold 2 gelly roll pens per elastic section but will hold 3 pencils or Stabilo pens, shown on the right side. I bought it for gel pens so I had to return it for a bigger size. The case is pretty decent quality with a nice leather aroma. I also really like the snaps on the zippers that prevents the case from opening when you dont want it to.

Receive the item quickly and now my color pencils have a home, with plenty room for more.

Very well made and I love the leather. I did have to order one more case because 120 pencils did not fit in one.

Wonderful case

Very nice leather, really like the color. Love being able to readily see & access all my pencils. Holds 72 in groups of 3 very snugly making it a little tough to replace them after use but Im sure the elastic will give more over time.

Love this case for several reasons: good price, leather which will wear well, easy to use, and packs easily.

This holds so many pencils and keeps me organized.

This pencil case is very nice, I love the look and feel of it! Its a little difficult to get the pencils in but it is durable. I thought my prismacolors wouldnt fit but they do.
