Claimed by many to be the best writing utensil in the world, Blackwing pencils are famous for the quality of graphite, iconic shape, replaceable eraser, and the men and women whose works they’ve inspired throughout the years. The Blackwing 602 is the classic Blackwing Pencil. Half the pressure twice the speed.
Firm lead, ideal for writing (similar to a B pencil)
Gunmetal grey finishing
Iconic square Blackwing ferrule in gold with a pink eraser
Sleek design and satisfying to use

Some of the world’s most legendary Grammy, Emmy, Pulitzer and Academy Award winners have created with Blackwing pencils. The list of known users includes John Steinbeck, Stephen Sondheim, Leonard Bernstein and Chuck Jones (who proudly used Blackwings to create Bugs Bunny and countless other Looney Tunes characters). Discontinued in 1998, the Blackwing Pencil is now making a comeback.
“Brilliant shop! Wonderful, prompt and attentive service and an excellent array of products (particularly given the size of the space). I usually order online and collect in store (another excellent service) to save the risk of parking my bike outside but always enjoy a wander when I’m in town. Highly recommended!”

“I ordered 3 pads of watercolour paper and when it arrived I was amazed at the way it was packed. Bubble wrap, cardboard wrap then brown paper. As a result the paper arrived in perfect condition. Well done.”
– Graham
“So nice to have a shop not in a mall or a big impersonal space with knowledgeable helpful staff-full of all the art/craft supplies one could possibly want.”
– Halima
“I’ve only found this wonderful shop recently. I have been coming into this shop regularly since as I’m doing a few craft projects at the moment. The staff are absolutely lovely and have helped me anytime I needed assistance — even with recommendations!”
– Chantelle
“The staff were very helpful and patient and helped me get everything I needed to start traditional inking/inkwash art, which is not that common (but they had the supplies regardless). Coming from a digital background, I had very little idea about what I needed but they were very patient and kind in helping me pick out each piece of equipment.”
