Castell 9000 - a genuinely classic pencil - was launched by Count Alexander von Faber-Castell in 1905. Its quality and finely graduated degrees of hardness have made it a firm favourite with artists and illustrators. Its lead is fully bonded with the wood surround and is therefore particularly break-resistant. Details: Top quality for writing, drawing and sketching With environmentally-friendly water-based varnish Break-resistant lead due to secural bonding process (SV) Available in HB, B, 2B & 4B
