Blackwing Volume 574 Graphite Pencil

The Blackwing Volume 574 Pencil honours the beauty, strength, and storytelling power of Native American art. Created in collaboration with artist Chris Pappan - of Kaw, Osage, and Lakota heritage - the Blackwing Volume 574 Pencil Set features a bold geometric design inspired by traditional Indigenous patterns found across various forms of Native American expression.

The Blackwing Volume 574 Pencil draws its name from the 574 federally recognised Native American tribes in the United States. More than just a writing tool, the Blackwing Volume 574 represents the importance of cultural preservation, identity, and the enduring voice of Indigenous communities. Each pencil is finished with Blackwing's Firm graphite core, ideal for everyday writing, sketching, and creative work.

Crafted from high-quality incense cedar and premium Japanese graphite, the Blackwing Volume 574 Pencil Set pairs beautifully with Blackwing sharpeners, notebooks, and accessories. A portion of the proceeds from this release supports the Cheyenne River Youth Project, which delivers vital arts programs to Lakota youth on the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Reservation.
