Perfect, almost!
I've been naughty and treated myself to the Holbein 150 set of artist colouring pencils, ordered from Japan, and after spending a fortune on them, i felt like i really needed to protect them, as i wanted to remove them from the box they came in. This case is perfect, slightly padded for protection, it opens like a book, and holds way over 160, so that enables me to add some graphite pencils or whatever to the back of the case. The black elastic is stitched well and holds each pencil individually so you can keep all your pencils in the order you want without them moving around. I love this case. I would have liked a different carrying handle though. The removabke strap is sturdy enough, but not very comfortable to hold, as the case is quite heavy when full. A briefcase type handle across the top would have been better, but as it's on a desk and not carried around, it's not an issue for me. The colour is exactly as depicted in the photo. A beautiful turquoise green. Very happy.

Super case, well made and perfect dimensions
I have two of these now as my son bought me a second for my birthday. I've purchased expensive leather ones for other pencil sets (I'm a coloured pencil artist with a lot of pencils) but this is my favourite because it has a compact dimension using extra layers to accommodate up to 160 pencils. The zips are good quality and although the PVU leather effect won't be as robust as real hide, it is good enough for the job as the pencil holder is mainly going to be used at home. Great to be able to take so many pencils on holiday though in such a compact carrier.

Perfect for parchment
I bought this to store my parchment craft tools along with other bits and bobs I need. It is brilliant and the fact that it is compact and has a carry handle makes it ideal for when I go to classes. The colour is beautiful and the case is well made. The zips work smoothly and the elastic is securely attached to avoid anything moving. I like the fact that I can store equipment, pencils, rubber and ruler all in one place. If I have a criticism to make it is the fact that the purple case cost more than the pink one - bit naughty I tthink.

Excellent, attractive case, huge storage
The case arrived in its own sturdy box within my amazon box, so it was well protected. The case stores a ton of pencils and has a couple of larger bands to store erasers or sharpeners. When closed the item offers good protection for the pencils - I'm storing a full set of Sudee Stiles (150) with room for a few extras such as my metallic pens. The pink case looks attractive and arrived in perfect condition. It's also slightly wider between layers compared to the OKPOW brand (see my review of that), which means the pencils won't be touching or rubbing together when the case is closed.Highly recommend this brand, for this case.

Fits FC Albrecht Durer, Inktense, Coloursoft etc
I read several reviews of several pencil holders and gambled on this holding my Faber Castell Albrecht Durer pencils as they are slightly 'chunkier' than normal pencils. It holds them with ease and also holds Derwent Coloursoft, Derwent Inktense, Derwent Graphitint, Derwent Aquatone and Derwent Artists pencils (I have bought another) so a wide range of sizes. Occasionally the elastic containing the pencil is a little more generous but this is not a problem. The biggest issue is that the zip pulls can get lost in the spine but a stitch or tiny safety pin would resolve this if it is too much of a problem. I would recommend it as it is reasonable quality for the money and will probably be buying another in the next few weeks as I have some pastel and charcoal pencils that are still in tins.

Excellent case! Could ask for a better way to organise your pencils and pens
Love it, fits so many pens, although the bigger pens I used every other space for to make getting them in and out easier.

this is a great case which lets you organize your pencils any which ...
This pencil case holds 160 pencils plus space for erasers and sharpners. I also put a pencil extender in it. In overal, this is a great case which lets you organize your pencils any which way you want, easy to choose your colors. There's one down side to this. I've used this for only a few days, and the stitching on the inside is coming out and getting stuck in the zipper. Therefor 4 stars instead of 5. I love this case, but the stitching in the zipper is getting annoying and I don't know how long it will last.

This is the 3rd one I have bought and I love it!
Love it! This is the 3rd one I’ve bought - 2 smaller ones and this larger one to store 160 pencils. They are sturdy, well made and are a great way to be able to see the colours in even larger sets of pencils by turning the “pages”. The 160 case is - of course - quite cumbersome compared its the smaller ones but once open on the desk they all perfectly maneageable. My only quibble is that the zipper pulls have a habit of “disappearing” into the “spine” of the case. But I found this was easily solved by adding Zipper pulls like you would add to a jacket. Or a charm or tassel of some sort would work equally well. All the cases came really nicely packaged in a sturdy box which would make them great gifts. This was a nice surprise extra since the cases are such good value for money anyway. Will definitely buy more as my pencil collection continues to grow.
