Following the success of Blackwing pencils, Palomino releases four limited edition pencils per year where the model number and design of each pencil honours and celebrates cultural icons and events. This current limited edition is inspired by the NASA Exploration Program and Mars. The robotic arm and zoom enabled cameras that will be sent to Mars were first envisioned in drawings by the team at Motiv Space Systems using Blackwing pencils. Blackwing pencils are made in Japan from renewable Californian incense-cedar. // Box of 12 // Iconic design // Replaceable Ferrule Eraser
