Faber-Castell is the world’s oldest and largest manufacturer of wood-cased pencils. This year Faber-Castell USA celebrates the 250th Anniversary of Faber-Castell and 35 years of Creativity for Kids! Special for this occasion the company has released 250th Anniversary Limited Edition Wood Case Set.
The hand-crafted wood case contains a wide range of products including all 120 colors of Polychromos colored pencils and Albrecht Durer watercolor pencils.

It is constructed in multi-level layers of drawers that house the products in separate compartments. These can be pulled out for easy access and arranged for specific types of creative work. The case clicks securely shut by twisting a pair of elegant knobs.

Each case has a plaque that shows the number of the case, and comes with a certificate to verify the authenticity and uniqueness of the piece. The case has been priced at $1,700. [Faber-Castell]
i I want this box for my kids.
hi everyone! The box really is beautiful, I’m currently considering selling mine and came across this post whilst looking into if there was any interest out there… It was given to me as a gift and none of the pieces have been used
Im interested, how much are you selling it?
Hey, I was wondering if you’re still looking to see your box. let me know.
Hi Soraya do you still have the box? Thanks
I’m trying to find one of these for my daughter who is an excellent artist. She started at a very young age and learned by being taught to “stay within the lines” by my mother who she is named after. She’s uses all forms of medium, charcoal, crayon, colored pencil, water color, acrylic, etc. She is amazing at what she does and to get her this set would be the ultimate gift for her!
Where could I buy this in Australia?
How does one inter to try to win one of these. I am a person that does not have very much money and I keep dreaming of owning a set of Faber Castell polychromous and I can not afford them I would love to be able to try to win this set.
Where can one find this in South Africa.
I have been trying to get a hold of a piece for a few months now. My fiance is a budding artist and I know this set is a dream that may never come true. I just hope you can help me locate a piece. I know it would mean a lot to her.
I would like to order this Special Edition for my lovely sister-in-law, Diane. How do I get it? – And can it be shipped to her directly, if I pay for it on my credit card?
