The 849 shape
Caran d'Ache's 849 is one of the most recognisable pens in the world, with a slim hexagonal barrel that sits comfortably between the fingers and will not roll off the desk. The 849 Colormat-X Turquoise brings that design to a mechanical pencil.
Colormat-X finish
Colormat-X is Caran d'Ache's anodised colour finish, with a satin feel and a subtle sparkle. In Turquoise it is a bright, cheerful blue-green that is easy to find in a bag or pencil case.
For writing and sketching
