Description
This little dog pencil sharpener sits up neatly with a blue bandana knotted at its neck, turning an everyday job into something to smile about. The dog has a warm orange coat with a white chest and paws, small pointed ears, closed happy eyes, a black nose and a pink tongue just peeping out. Its bandana is dotted with white circles, and the knot sits to one side. Turn it round and the sharpening hole is set into its back, so the cheerful face stays to the front while you work. It stands 3.8cm tall, 2.9cm wide and 2.7cm long, small enough to close in your hand.
It is made for pencil cases, desk drawers and the corner of a busy desk. Because it takes standard size pencils, it suits the everyday pencils most of us already have, whether they are for sketching, study notes, crosswords or lists by the kettle. It sits upright on its own, so between uses it can stay on a shelf or windowsill as a small ornament rather than a piece of kit. We like it for anyone who keeps a sketchbook or notepad close by and enjoys a bit of character in their stationery.
It is made of plastics and metal, and it is light enough to slip into a bag or pocket without a second thought. Its smooth, rounded shape is comfortable to hold while you turn the pencil. To keep it working well, brush away any shavings after use and wipe the outside with a soft dry cloth. Tucked in with a few new pencils and a notebook, it makes a cheerful small gift, and on your own desk it brings a friendly face to every sharpening session.
