The Faber-Castell Ultimate’ pencil is the perfect gift for the writer in your life!

The perfect gift for the writer in your life? The ‘Ultimate’ pencil, limited edition of the Graf von Faber-Castell Perfect Pencil, which is offered at $12,800. Only 10 of this classic pencil have been made, and there are only about five left in the world. Crafted with 240-year-old olive wood and 18-carat white gold, the pencil includes an eraser and sharpener. The pencil is crafted with 99 different parts, and features an end piece and an extender, which are made from white gold palladium. The pencil’s cap features three diamonds beneath the Faber-Castell coatof-arms. Count Anton Wol fgang von Faber-Castell, the recentlydeceased purveyor of the Graf von Faber-Castell Collection, surely knew his writing instruments. They were his family’s business since 1761, when Kasper Faber began producing pencils in Germany.
