โค๏ธWhy Tourists Love This
Sakura Coupy pencils are a Japanese childhood ritual. Unlike Western color pencils, Coupy have NO wood barrel โ the entire pencil is solid wax color. You can sharpen the tip or peel back the paper wrapper. They're stronger, richer in color, and safer for small children. Every Japanese school has a box of these somewhere. For adults, they work as beautiful blending tools similar to high-end art pencils. 24-color set is the classic gift pack.
๐How to Use in Japan
1. Peel back the paper wrapper as the tip wears down (like a Crayola Twistable)
2. Or sharpen with a knife for a proper tip
3. Works on any paper โ richer on smooth paper
4. Can blend colors by layering
5. Washable from fabric
