Brand: LYRA Pencil Co.
Made in: Italy
No indication of orgin, however the name Campidoglio means capitol in Italian and the box it came in indicates Milano. Also written on the box is 2132 Matita copiativa which translates to copying pencil.
Lyra is a German brand owned by parent company F.I.L.A. Group, an Italian corporation. According to FILA’s website, "The origins of the Lyra brand date back to 1806 when Johann Froescheis began producing pencils in a factory in Nuremberg. In 1868, the symbol of LYRA was registered as a brand. The lyre is a musical instrument that accompanied the singers of that period. The reason why the Lyre was chosen remains a mystery but it was presumably because of the high quality of the pencils."
