Claimed by many to be the best writing instrument in the world, Blackwing pencils are famous for the quality of graphite, iconic shape, replaceable eraser, and the men and women whose works they've inspired throughout the years.
Some of the world's most legendary Grammy, Emmy, Pulitzer and Academy Award winners have created with Blackwing pencils. The list of known users includes John Steinbeck, Stephen Sondheim, Leonard Bernstein and Chuck Jones (who proudly used Blackwings to create Bugs Bunny and countless other Looney Tunes characters). Discontinued in 1998, the Blackwing Pencil has now made a comeback.
The Blackwing Natural features an extra-firm graphite that works well for extended writing and detailed line work. Each pencil proudly displays an exposed Incense-cedar barrel with a subtle clear matte finish, iconic square Blackwing ferrule and grey eraser. “Naked” unpainted pencils were traditionally THE pencils to have in the 19th century: once-upon-a-time only inferior quality pencils were painted to hide their imperfections
Blackwing Natural pencils come in a 12-pack, with the box neatly doubling as a pencil cup.
