These short (4-1/2"), fat (1/2") pencils are beautifully crafted and of superb quality. The giant 6.25mm core is extremely break resistant and wears for 3-4 times longer than standard colored pencils and requires less frequent sharpening. Pencil has closed end so core is not exposed and is made of natural, unlacquered wood for young children who may put a pencil in their mouth.
These are #2B pencils.
