The BRASS Pencil is the perfect pencil holder for the road. It is made from a solid brass barrel, with a nickel plated cap that holds any standard-sized pencil. Pencils that run too short to be held comfortably will benefit greatly from this holder – or use it to greatly up your IKEA visit by improving on their familiar pencils.

At Misc-store we also offer the Brass Pencil Refill for those who look to stock up on the original pencil.

Its uniquely clever design features a distinctly small size with the cap on, but once removed and screwed onto the back, it transforms into a comfortable, full-size pen. Its small footprint makes it an excellent choice to take with you on your travels.

The BRASS pens are made in a small factory on the outskirts of Tokyo. This facility was originally built as bullet plant during WWII, but was transformed into a pen factory afterwards. To this day, the design of the BRASS pens features a bullet-like aesthetic – a clear indicator of the original purpose of the machines that produce these cases, and a beautiful way to repurpose them.

BRASS
In a day and age where items are often produced for short-term usage, the pieces in the BRASS range were specifically designed with the opposite thought in mind: the more and the longer you use them, the more beautiful they will turn out. The brass of these pieces will develop a gorgeous patina over time because of the slow oxidization process of the copper within the alloy.

The scratches, fingerprints and small blemishes they collect over time only add to their vintage beauty. You could polish the brass to have it look new again, but we at Misc-store believe that the eventual vintage, battered quality is a reflection of its owner, as the patina on pieces will be vastly different from user to user and marks their personal bond with the item.
