Description

This gem of a pencil sharpener is so simple and elegant. I love that they look like old fashioned ink bottle... or perhaps perfume? Lovely.

Alessi Pig Pencil Sharpener

2 people recommended this item

Description

Aside from the obvious appeal of sticking my pencil up a pig's nose, the comfy easy grip shape of Pig Pencil means I'll be less likely to drop it and spatter shavings all over the floor. Plus, it's been designed for Alessi by comic book artist Massimo Giacon.

Palomino Pencil Sharpener - Automatic Stop, 2-Step Long Point

First to recommend

Description

For those of you who glory in the beauty of a perfect fine point on your pencil, the Palomino 2-Step is the holy grail. The first step carves the wood until an automatic stop tells you to move on to the next hole. The next hole carves the graphite, while another automatic stop keeps you from over-sharpening. Perfection every time.
