In an era dominated by computers and the Internet, pencils continue to evoke excitement. They come in various forms: short, long, round, square, with an integrated sharpener and eraser. The Urban is a unique pencil with an ergonomic triangular shape that ensures fatigue-free writing. The coating material is made from environmentally friendly water-soluble paint, a technology introduced by Faber-Castell. The pencil lead, fully glued along the wooden body, is break-resistant. The Urban pencil is available in hardness grade B.
