Pencils

We love it when modern pencils go for a vintage look. To celebrate the company's 100th anniversary, the Montblanc 100 Anniversary pencils were designed to look like old-fashioned "safety" pens that were similar to the earliest Mont Blanc pens. This ballpoint pen saw little use and has minimal wear. Numbered 04053 of 10000, our preowned pencil remains in excellent working order. We believe this pencil to use .7mm leads. It has some spares in the tail along with a barely used, still-fresh eraser. 12.8cm.

Among our favorite Montblanc designs is the Montblanc Czar Nikolai II. The stunning malachite green and vermeil look fantastic together. Part of a limited edition series, this brings incredible elegance to luxury pencils. For those not familiar with vermeil, it means the pen is made of solid sterling silver and plated with gold. Our pen has serial number KM203324. We guarantee the pencil is authentic. Twist the tail cap to advance its .7mm lead. Comes with a partially used eraser and spare leads inside the pencil. No cracks or deep scratches. However, it does have a little very light scratching and wear to the vermeil barrel. 14cm.

Modern mechanical pencils don't get much cooler than the Rotring 600. All metal, modern design...this pen is in great condition. Minimal if any wear. It takes .7mm leads. There is a half-used eraser and spare leads under the tail clicker. 14.3cm

Among the less commonly found colors of the modern Parker Duofold line is this beautiful jade. Similar to vintage pens, it is nice tribute to the early Parker Duofolds of the 1920s and '30s. Our modern Parker Duofold pencil works well and sports a .5mm lead. You advance it with a twist of the tail cap. Our preowned luxury pencil does show a little wear from use, but there aren't any cracks or deep scratches. Under the golden blind cap of the tail is a used but still-fresh eraser and spare leads. 13.1cm.

We love that Parker Duofolds have made a return in their original design language. This Parker Duofold pencil looks sharp in its black and pearl design. Yet, impressive to us is that it uses the older pusher-style lead-advance system. Just keep twisting the tail cap in a full circle to extend or retract the .9mm lead. There are no clicks. Just smooth, continuous operation. Our preowned luxury pencil shows a little light wear from use but no egregious blemishing. Comes with spare leads and a partially used--but still fresh--eraser under the tail cap. 13.1cm.

The writing instrument maker for kings dedicates one of its finest pencils to one of the all-time greatest kings: Ramses II. Made using lapis lazuli mined from the same mine Egyptian pharaohs used, the Montblanc Ramses II is a functional work of art. Aside from a little scuff on the vermeil barrel (gold-plated sterling silver), this pen looks close to new. Twist the lapis cap to the right a little to extend the .7mm lead. Everything works well, and there are spare leads loaded inside the pencil. The eraser still works, too. Guaranteed authentic. 14cm capped.

Whether you are filling in a museum worthy collection or stepping up your pencil game at the office, we think you will love this burgundy Parker "Vacumatic" pencil. It does not appear that Parker actually called the pencils Vacumatics, but they were designed to match the Vacumatic pens. We believe this near-mint condition pencil to be an oversized model from 1937. Aside from a little mark under the imprint, it looks close to perfect. Included is the original spare lead cartridge with a hardened eraser under the tail cap. In excellent working order with spare 1.1mm leads. Burgundy is among the rarest colors for this pencil, and Parker reported way fewer sales of these pencils compared to the pens. 12.7cm.

Perhaps our favorite color combination on the Parker 100 pencil is this sky-blue and brushed-gold design. Our preowned luxury pencil is in great working order with a new eraser and spare .5mm leads. You'll see some scratches on the brushed gold cap and nose cone. Twist the cap to advance the lead or close up/retract the lead mechanism. Makes math, crosswords and sudoku more fun. 13.8cm.
