The ink used & included in this set is fast drying & waterproof, with a high density pigment allowing for excellent opacity & lightfastness. These cartridges use the unique Ink Helix system, to allow for full usage of the ink, leaving no wastage and also making any additional maintenance of these pens much simpler.
The Tikky mechanical pencils are made of lightweight, durable plastic moulded into a triangular barrel with rubberised grips. An additional feature of these items would be the Rotring brass mechanism, keeping the lead protected and stable during usage & transport.

Unique to this particular set is the inclusion of the Pen Station.
Several are included, these can be kept together for convenience or separated & affixed to a variety of surfaces, such as a desk or drawing board, for ease of use in any drawing style. When placing pens inside, light pressure is needed to use the "double grip" feature, preventing the pens from drying out.
