Viarco Vintage Pencil Nº272 – Box of 12

A faithful re-edition of Viarco’s mid-century production, combining historical Portuguese design with a unique functional core. The No. 272 features standard hexagonal cedar casings containing traditional copying lead.

Unlike standard graphite, this specialized violet formulation reacts to moisture. It writes smoothly when dry, but when touched with a wet brush or cloth, the line dissolves into a permanent, indelible ink wash, making it a distinct, versatile tool for sketching, shading, and mixed-media work.
