LYRA HIGH-QUALITY GRAPHITE PENCILS FOR WRITING AND ART
We believe children should have high-quality art supplies while exploring different art genres and mediums. This provides an authentic experience while learning and discovering the basic foundations and beyond.
WHY WE LOVE THESE PENCILS
This collection of high-quality graphite art pencils provides a range of hardness levels for a variety of drawing, sketching, shading and handwriting.
The pencils’ qualities lies in the grades of hardness and high breaking strength. They are perfect for the high demands of graphic design and architecture, as well as the higher pressure placed on pencils by children.
