Palomino Blackwing Pearl – Pearl Balanced Pencils – Set of 12

40.00

Claimed by many to be the best writing utensil 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. 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).

Ideal for musicians, woodworkers and anyone who prefer a soft, dark line, the Palomino Blackwing is the softest of the three core Blackwing models. Blackwing pencils feature a timeless matte black finish, iconic square Blackwing ferrule and black eraser. 

Launched in the 1930s, discontinued in 1998, the Blackwing Pencil is now making a comeback.

The Palomino Blackwing pencil has become an iconic artists and designers tool, with a worldwide reputation as ‘the finest pencil ever made’. This ‘Pearl’ version features a smooth graphite centre that is harder than that in the original Blackwing model, but softer than the Blackwing 602 pencil. It gives a smooth, opaque line, with superior firmness to traditional pencils.
Each pencil also features a specially designed eraser, deemed more efficient than standard round pencil erasers due to their uniquely shaped flat ends.
