Blackwing Pearl Pencils (12 Pencils)

Regarded by many as the finest writing tools in the world, Blackwing pencils are renowned for the quality of their graphite, their iconic shape, their replaceable eraser, and the men and women whose works they have inspired over the years. The Blackwing Pearl is a little harder than the classic Blackwing, yet remains smooth and dark: a versatile pencil perfect for all uses.

Discontinued in 1998, the Blackwing pencil is now making a comeback.

ABOUT THE BRAND

The Blackwing pencil has a rich history dating back to 1934. In 2008, Palomino acquired the brand and began producing the Blackwing range as we know it today.

Blackwing pencils are famed for the quality of their graphite and the unique smoothness of their lead. The Blackwing pencil is instantly recognizable by its semi-hexagonal body and interchangeable eraser. The original 602 pencil alone inspired the works of some of the greatest artists in history. It is said that Disney animator Shamus Culhane requested to be buried with his Blackwing 602.
