They’ve been his family’s business since 1761, when Kasper Faber began producing pencils in Stein, Germany. In 1839, Baron Lothar von Faber created the world’s first branded writing instrument. In 2008, the Faber-Castell collection produced the world’s most expensive pencil. A limited edition of the Graf von Faber-Castell Perfect Pencil, the most expensive pencil is made of 240-year-old olive wood and has an endpiece and extender with built-in eraser and sharpener, all made of 18-carat white gold. The pen’s cap even features three diamonds beneath the Faber-Castell coat-of-arms. Only ninety-nine limited edition Perfect Pencils were created. At a retail price of €9,000 (about $12,800), it truly is the world’s most expensive pencil. </blockquote>
