Description
This dinosaur pencil with sharpener is a jumbo version of an everyday pencil, printed all over with the Prehistoric Land design. Dinosaurs in deep green, rust brown and near black march along a soft cream barrel, from long-necked giants to plated backs and swooping winged reptiles. At 39.1cm long and 1.8cm across, it dwarfs the pencils in an ordinary pot, with a silver-toned band and a yellow eraser tip at one end and a sharpened graphite point at the other.
It is a proper working pencil that writes and draws, so it earns its place on a desk as well as raising a smile. Use it for sketching, doodling, jotting notes or colouring in, or lay it flat or prop it in a tall jar where its size can be seen. It sits happily in a study, a home office, a craft corner or on a bedroom desk, and the dinosaur print brings a playful note to a shelf of notebooks and pens. As a novelty piece of stationery, it also makes a cheerful small present on its own or tucked in with a sketchbook.
The pencil is made from wood, graphite, plastic and synthetic rubber, and its rounded barrel gives a chunky, comfortable grip. It comes with a protective cap for the point and a bright yellow sharpener in plastic and metal, sized to suit the thick barrel and joined to the pencil by a fabric attachment so the two stay together. Wipe the barrel with a soft dry cloth to keep the print bright, and pop the cap back on after use to protect the point in a bag or drawer. For an easy gift, wrap it with a plain notebook and let the dinosaurs do the talking.
