The Brand

Faber-Castell is the world's oldest pencil manufacturer - founded in 1761! Makers of the highest quality graphite pencils in a wide variety of designs and colours, Faber-Castell are known for their extensive range of colour and graphite pencils. 

Faber-Castell pencils have been in production since the 16th Century, and while older manual production methods have been improved upon and mechanised, the basic principle remains the same.
