General’s® Graphite Chunk – Large Artist Graphite Block

General’s® Graphite Chunk is an extra-large piece of premium artist graphite designed for bold, expressive drawing and broad coverage. Its smooth, rich formula produces deep black tones with minimal effort, making it ideal for sketching, shading, and creating dramatic value contrasts.

Unlike traditional pencils, this solid graphite block can be used on its side for sweeping marks and large areas, or angled for more controlled lines and edges. It’s especially effective for creating negative space, background tones, and dynamic compositions.

Compatible with most drawing papers and newsprint, the Graphite Chunk is a versatile tool for both studio work and classroom use.

Made in the USA with domestic and imported materials.
