The 849 collection, which owes its roots to Caran d'Ache's roots as a pencil factory in Geneva, Switzerland, began in 1915. Its hexagonal body, quiet push button, and seamless, simple, one-piece design are distinctive.
Caran d'Ache's expertise in pencil and colored pencil manufacturing has been applied to the 849, resulting in the 849 Color Matte X Mechanical Pencil 0.5mm, which is finished with a microbead lacquer.
Caran d'Ache's colors are based on the Ostwald color wheel proposed by Nobel Prize-winning scientist Ostwald, and are created by combining three-digit color numbers with a grayscale (various shades of gray ranging from white to black).
This time, two refreshing blues perfect for summer are available. From the invention of the zipper-feed fixed pencil in 1929 to the mechanical pencil, this collection features a timeless mechanism and simple design. Enjoy beautiful color and a reliable writing experience.
