Venus Velvet All Purpose No.2 2/3

Brand: Faber-Castell

Made in: USA

This pencil appears to be a transitional model from the Venus Pen and Pencil Company as the Venus is still on the pencil. I did however pull this pencil from a box labeled Faber-Castell.

About Faber-Castell

German-based Faber-Castell is one of the oldest industrial companies in the world. Originally established in 1761 by the cabinet maker Kaspar Faber (1730-1784), the company was at that time known as A.W. Faber. In 1900, when Lothar Faber’s granddaughter married a count of Castell, the A.W. Faber enterprise was renamed to Faber-Castell. Faber-Castell USA, part of the Faber-Castell family of companies, is based in Cleveland, Ohio.
