General Pencil Carbon Sketch Pencil – Rich Black, Graphite-Charcoal Hybrid

The General Pencil Carbon Sketch Pencil offers the best of both worlds: the smooth application of graphite with the rich, dark finish of charcoal. This unique carbon-based formula lays down strong, jet-black lines perfect for sketching, drawing, and layout work. It's also a fantastic companion pencil when used alongside General’s® Charcoal or Kimberly® Graphite pencils.

One of its standout features is its ability to be activated with water. Simply brush a damp brush over your marks to lift and move the pigment, allowing for stunning tonal transitions and watercolor-like effects. This makes it a versatile tool for both traditional sketching and expressive mixed-media work.

Made from sustainably harvested cedar wood, this pencil is proudly manufactured in the USA and built to meet the needs of both students and professional artists alike.
