Tip of the Week
Before the mid-1500s, when no one ever thought that there could be mechanical pencil history, artists mainly used pencils made of a thin rod composed of soft lead.

The Romans' pencillus is a first in the history of lead pencil, since the Romans used a kind of lead.

The history of the pencil, as with all things, starts with our ancestors thousands of years ago.
