To mark its 260th anniversary, Graf von Faber-Castell presents an exclusive interpretation of the Perfect Pencil – the classic pencil that can write, sharpen and erase. With the eraser under the end cap and the integrated sharpener in the protective cap, the anniversary model has all the characteristic features of this all-rounder – and also comes with luxurious extras that are closely linked to the history of Faber-Castell:

The pencil itself is deep black and the metal parts have an anthracite-colored PVD coating. The decorative engraving of stylized pencils on the cap, which also doubles as an extender, just like on the historic model, is a delicate reference to the company’s roots. Finally, a real jewel gleams on the top of the cap: an artistically faceted jade stone. In Far Eastern mythology, the shimmering green gemstone represents both lived tradition and a promising future – ideal for an anniversary that pays tribute to the merits of the past as well as the exciting challenges of the present.

limited edition of 750 pieces; number (1/750) engraved in the clip ring of the extender.
