Faber-Castell 1117 Pencil with Eraser – HB

Faber-Castell has been creating high quality writing instruments since 1660. Originating from Nuremberg Germany, they continue to be one of the best recognized writing instrument makers in the world.

The 1117 pencil is lightweight and is coated only with a thin eco-friendly and water-based varnish, retaining the wooden texture and feel on the pencil itself. Like other Faber-Castell pencils, the lead undergoes a “Sekuralverfahren” (SV for short) bonding process which strengthens the lead and allows for better sharpening.

This pencil is available in a number of different grades. To find out more details on pencil lead grade, check out our blog.
