Portuguese pencil brand Viarco is steeped in history, making pencils daily in their factory - one of few still active in Europe. Viarco makes its pencils using traditional methods and tools, and the packages are a faithful version of the many different designs used by Viarco between 1940 and 1960, which Viarco has brought back to life to tell the story of a flagship brand that views simplicity as a representation of its identity and collective memory.

These vintage-inspired No. 2 pencils are round and feature six different metallic finishes. Viarco lead sharpens well and holds a point, and is not waxy, which makes for a pleasantly tactile writing experience.

Made in Portugal. Sold by the dozen
