This Deer set swaps the usual flat card box for a plastic container moulded to look like a giant pencil, complete with a wood-grain cone tip and a black ribbed base that unscrews. The pencils live inside standing upright, so the whole set sits on a desk as an object a child actually wants to keep rather than a box that splits along the seam after a month.

Two sizes are stocked. The twelve-colour jar is yellow and covers the everyday palette; the twenty-four-colour jar is blue and adds the in-between shades, the extra greens, blues and pinks that matter once a child starts shading rather than just filling in. The pencils inside are full length, not the shortened school type.

The container is the practical part. Because the base screws off rather than flips open, pencils do not spill across a school bag, and the upright shape means a child can see every colour at once instead of digging through a tin. When the pencils eventually wear down, the jar carries on as a desk pot for pens, brushes or scissors.
