GrooveThe skid-proofed grooves of this colored pencil for children in the kindergarten or first years of school support intuitively the correct ergonomic position of the fingers when at sketching and writing. Thanks to their offset, the grooves are always provided in steady positions even after resharpening. The broad milled texture makes additional grip-supporting attachments redundant and gives GROOVE a friendly and natural look that incites children to use it and emphazises its ecological approach.

Colorstripe by formidable designThe unconcealed lead works as color coding as well as distinguishing feature making colored paint coats redundant. The broad slope of the tip facilitates both extensive hatching and text highlighting. Only a transparent lacquer coating protects lead and fingertips from abrasion and preserves the grip-congenial natural wooden surface. The minimal use of resources and puristic application of color makes COLORSTRIPE a smart and ecological statement.
