Blackwing Natural :: Set of 12 Iconic Pencils

The Blackwing Natural includes the popular extra-firm graphite that works well for extended writing and detailed line work. Each pencil features an exposed Incense-cedar barrel with a subtle clear matte finish, iconic square Blackwing ferrule, and grey eraser. 

Blackwing Natural pencils come in a 12-pack gift box that doubles as a pencil cup. 

p.s. We strive to carry American-made products at Period Six, and while these Blackwing Naturals are made in Japan, we think the story behind them is pure Americana. We are honored to bring them to new fans and long-time admirers. Enjoy!

First created in the 1930s, Blackwing built a cult following that included John Steinbeck and Chuck Jones, who proudly used Blackwing pencils to create Bugs Bunny and many other Looney Tunes characters. Discontinued in the 1990s, we revived the Blackwing brand in 2010 for a new generation of artists, writers, musicians, and others seeking a more natural existence. 

p.p.s. we carry Blackwing Long Point Sharpeners and Replacement Erasers too!
