Faber-Castell Goldfaber HB Graphite Pencil

The Faber-Castell Goldfaber 1221 HB is a versatile and dependable graphite pencil suited for students, professionals, and hobbyists alike. The HB hardness offers a balance between firm and smooth — making it excellent for everyday writing, sketching, drafting, and general use. 

This pencil features a break-resistant lead thanks to Faber-Castell’s SV bonding process, ensuring that the core is firmly adhered to the wood casing to reduce breakage, especially during sharpening or under pressure. 

Its barrel is hexagonal to provide a comfortable grip and prevent rolling off flat surfaces. The aesthetic design — a blue body accented with golden stripes — gives it a refined look. 

Whether you're writing, sketching lightly, or making preliminary sketches before deeper shading, the Goldfaber 1221 HB is a solid, everyday choice.
