BLACKWING Matte Green Pencils

The history of the BLACKWING pencil begins in 1930, when it was introduced by Eberhard Faber. The Blackwing pencil quickly became a cult classic, thanks to the Grammy, Oscar, and Pulitzer Prize winners who used it.

When production ceased in 1990, something extraordinary happened that added another chapter to its history. The remnants that remained on the retail market fetched a staggering $40 each, earning it the title of the most expensive wooden pencil in the world.

High-quality graphite and a replaceable eraser – these are the characteristic features of the Blackwing, appreciated by many famous artists around the world.

The Blackwing was used by, among others, John Steinbeck, Stephen Sondheim, Leonard Bernstein, and Chuck Jones, who created Bugs Bunny and many other characters from the popular Looney Tunes cartoon using this extraordinary pencil.

For many creators, these are the best writing and drawing utensils in the world.

The new version of the iconic BLACKWING Matte pencils - Mattte Green is characterized by a matte green finish, copper details, including the print and barrel, and a gray-brown eraser.

Contains the same soft graphite used in our classic matte black pencil.
