General’s Primo Elite Grande Pencil is a large size hexagonal Carbon pencil which is handmade in small batches with rich, organic blacks to achieve intense drawing tones and values. The pencil is a combination of Euro Blend Charcoal and Graphite of the Kimberly Premium quality. It lays down smooth, strong, jet-black lines for sketching, drawing, or layout. The larger core of the Primo Elite Grande Pencil allows you to create broader strokes with the smoothness of graphite and the deep rich blacks of charcoal.
