About Us

Pencils.com is a whole lot more than a pencil store; though, we do offer one of the best pencil collections on the web, with an extensive and growing array of safe, high-quality options to fit every budget, taste and need.

Our Palomino featured brands include premium Palomino pencils, environmentally friendly ForestChoice, Golden Bear, Prospector and Spangle. In October 2010 and June 2011, respectively, we introduced thePalomino Blackwing and Palomino Blackwing 602, thus reviving the famous Blackwing brand. We also carry a broad range of school, art and writing supplies from other leading manufacturers.

Behind Pencils.com is California Cedar Products Company, the world’s leading supplier of wooden slats used in the production of wood-cased pencils. Our wood is used in California Republic Stationers’ brands as well as many of the top pencil brands worldwide, including most of the wood-cased pencils sold on this site.

A fourth generation, family-owned company, Cal Cedar has been built on a tradition of excellence both in the production of superior products and in our dedication to building strong relations with our customers. When it comes to experience in the pencil industry, the family goes back seven generations.

We are dedicated to excellent service and customer support. As we look forward to sharing with you the rich and varied world of wood-cased pencils, we hope you will join and contribute to our growing community of Pencil Heads.
