Achieve true depth in your sketches with a professional-grade pencil that eliminates distracting graphite glare, allowing your portraits and high-contrast renderings to stand out with a rich, matte finish.
Master Dramatic Contrast without the Shine
The STAEDTLER Mars Lumograph Black is not your average sketching tool. By blending a high proportion of carbon with traditional graphite, this pencil provides a velvety blackness that absorbs light rather than reflecting it. Whether you are a professional artist or a dedicated educator, you can now produce expressive work that looks exactly as intended under any lighting condition.
Carbon-Rich 2B Lead
Provides a deep, jet-black application ideal for blending and smudging without the grey "graphite sheen."
Super-Bonded Core
The 3.6mm lead is fused to the wood casing, ensuring it won't snap during heavy shading or sharpening.
PEFC Certified
Sourced from sustainably managed German forests, meeting high standards for environmental responsibility.
Versatile Surfaces
Glides smoothly over high-quality drawing paper, drafting film, and vellum for diverse creative projects.
Why Accuracy Matters to Artists
Precision in shading requires a tool that responds to your touch. The hexagonal barrel provides a secure grip for long drawing sessions, while the 2B grade offers the perfect balance between softness for shading and firmness for detail. It is a reliable choice for life drawing, graphic design, and professional portraiture.
