BLACKWING

High-quality pencils, notebooks and tools crafted with care for writers, artists and everyday users. In the 1930’s the first BLACKWING 602 pencil was introduced by the Eberhard Faber Pencil Company. Since then, these pencils have been synonymous with quality. Legendary Grammy, Emmy, Pulitzer and Academy Award winners have created with the Blackwing 602 pencil. Including John Steinbeck, Leonard Bernstein, Looney Tunes creator Chuck Jones, and Disney animator Shamus Culhane who, according to animation historian Charles Soloman, requested he be buried with his Blackwing 602. In 1998 the Blackwing pencils were discontinued. Fans of the brand began paying as much as $40 for a single Blackwing pencil.

Nowadays, Blackwing is not only a pencil, it is a culture. It encourages creativity in all forms. In fact, a percentage of every Blackwing product sold benefits music and arts education through the Blackwing Foundation.

Every pencil is made of graphite and wood. Only Blackwing pencils combine the best graphite in the world, the best wood in the world, and generations of craftsmanship to create an exceptional pencil. When you’re looking for the perfect pencil to write a song, sketch a landscape or brainstorm a business idea, choose a Blackwing.
