Creative and colourful art supplies for kids from Faber-Castell
If you have a creative little one at home, you certainly can't go wrong by choosing some wonderful art supplies from Faber-Castell. Whether your kid likes to draw, paint, write or play with modelling wax, Faber-Castell offers a wide range of high-quality products.
Faber-Castell is one of the world's oldest, largest and most recognised manufacturers of pencils, markers, office supplies and art supplies. Headquartered in Stein, Germany, Faber-Castell is sold in more than 100 countries worldwide.
The company was founded by the Faber-Castell family, who still own and manage the company until the present day. In 1761, Faber-Castell was founded by Kaspar Faber and today it is one of the world's oldest industrial companies.
Faber-Castell is popular because of its high quality, innovative products, traditional values and its focus on sustainability.
Products from Faber-Castell motivate both kids and adults to bring their ideas to life and express themselves, by creating inspiring and colourful products of the highest quality.
In 1883, Vincent van Gogh himself has recommended Faber-Castell to his friend Anthon van Rappard:
''I wanted to tell you about a Faber pencil I have discovered. They are thick, very soft and of better quality than carpenter's pencils. The black tone they create is good and they are perfect for working on large sketches.''
