Derwent Inktense Fern block, sold in a box of 6

Highly pigmented Inktense Block in Fern 1560, with an 8mm core, for use dry or with water.

Colour 1560, Fern, sits in the Derwent Inktense Blocks range of 72 colours. Surfaces Derwent names include paper, ceramic, wood and fabrics such as silk and cotton. Each block has an 8mm core and a soft texture. Derwent formulates the blocks to dry permanently, giving layering without dissolving colour that has already dried. The colour is highly pigmented and can be used dry or mixed with water, which is when it becomes even more intense.
