Description
This jumbo pencil comes with its own little red sharpener, and it is printed from end to end with sausage dogs out in the sunshine. The Sunny Sausage Dog design sets red dachshunds in colourful striped jumpers against a cream barrel, scattered with orange suns and small green leaves. At 39.1cm long and 1.8cm across, it is far bigger than an ordinary pencil, yet it weighs just 42g, so it is easy to hold and pleasant to write with. The rounded barrel finishes in a red eraser tip set in a shiny silver band.
It earns its place on a desk, a shelf or in a tall pencil pot, and it works as a real pencil for writing notes, sketching and drawing. The graphite core sits in a wooden casing, so it sharpens and wears down like any pencil, and the eraser tip tidies up mistakes as you go. It brings a cheerful note to a home office, a study corner or a craft table, and its sheer size turns an everyday shopping list or doodle into something to smile about. As a small gift it is light and easy to wrap.
The pencil is made from wood, graphite, plastic and synthetic rubber, and the matching red sharpener is plastic and metal. A fabric tie keeps the sharpener attached to the pencil, so the two stay together, and a protective cap slips over the point to guard it between uses. The sharpener is sized to suit the chunky barrel, so there is no hunting for one that fits. To keep it looking its best, wipe the barrel with a soft dry cloth and keep the cap on when it is not in use. Tie a ribbon around it for a fun little present, or stand it in a jar on the desk where its sunny print can brighten every day.
