Honouring a mathematical marvel that you can see just about everywhere if you know how to look for it, Blackwing's Volume 55 Graphite Pencils are inspired by the Golden Ratio, and are in turn designed to inspire you to pay attention to the small wonders we so often overlook.
You can see the Golden Ratio in everything from a shell spiral to the unfurling of a fern, and this simple ratio can be found in Salvador Dali's art, Sanskrit poetry, Frank Lloyd Wright's architecture, and probably a dozen places near you right now. The pencil design draws on the Fibonacci sequence, where the width of each colour block is the sum of the widths of the previous two colour blocks (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, & 55mm).
A pencil of legend, reborn for a modern audience. Beloved by artists, musicians, designers, illustrators and more, each Blackwing offers a writing or sketching experience that has stood the test of time.
