## Description

Push your artwork further with the STAEDTLER Mars Lumograph Black Drawing Pencils, developed for artists who demand deeper blacks, smoother blending, and uncompromising control. Unlike standard graphite pencils, this advanced carbon-rich formulation produces intensely dark, matte lines with reduced light reflection, allowing your work to maintain visual depth and contrast under any lighting condition. The result is a more dramatic, professional finish—ideal for portfolio work, gallery-ready pieces, and high-resolution reproduction. Each pencil is engineered with a velvety-smooth laydown, enabling effortless shading, layering, and blending. Whether you are building subtle tonal gradients in portraiture or creating bold, high-contrast compositions, these pencils respond with precision and consistency. The included range of 6 carefully selected degrees (8B, 7B, 6B, 4B, 2B, HB) provides a complete tonal system for advanced techniques—from soft atmospheric shading to controlled line work and fine detailing. This versatility makes the set ideal for life drawing, figure studies, illustration, and mixed media applications. Built with STAEDTLER’s super-bonded lead technology, each pencil offers exceptional break resistance during sharpening and use, ensuring durability without compromising performance. This reliability allows artists to focus fully on technique and execution without interruption. Made in Germany with wood from sustainably managed forests, the STAEDTLER Mars Lumograph Black Drawing Pencils 6-Piece Set reflects a legacy of precision craftsmanship trusted by professionals worldwide. For artists seeking deeper blacks, smoother transitions, and greater expressive range, this is more than a pencil set—it’s a refined drawing instrument designed to elevate your work. 100B G6

Review: Great range of matte, bold graphite pencils! - I’m really impressed with the Staedtler Lumograph Black pencils. They’re way darker than regular graphite, with a rich matte look that makes sketches pop. They sharpen easily, don’t crumble, and feel really smooth on the paper. Great for shading, outlines, or just doodling when you want deep bold values without that excessive shininess that most graphite brings. They erase just as well as a comparable pencil made of regular graphite, and feel comfortable in the hand to use. My one complaint is that I feel the leads skew a bit harder than the listed firmness, but I think that just comes with the territory of a matte ‘black’ pencil. The upside is that they won’t smudge everywhere quite as easily as a lot of deep dark pencils do, where it somehow gets all over your hand, wrist, arm, shirt, and face. Definitely worth it if you like sketching!
Review: Good pencils - Good pencils. I still use them after a couple years. So they are durable, and easy to use. They sharpen well too. The variety in shades is good. I would say worth your money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great range of matte, bold graphite pencils!
*by R***S on August 19, 2025*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good pencils
*by C***L on January 7, 2026*

Good pencils. I still use them after a couple years. So they are durable, and easy to use. They sharpen well too. The variety in shades is good. I would say worth your money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “These are real artist grade pencils.”
*by S***S on January 15, 2023*

I hope I’m not the only one that wanted to see a comparison between these and the Faber Pitt-Matte set. I would first like to say I’m a fan of both brands but neither is my all time favorite brand, so I sway neither direction in a biased opinion. So let’s begin. After a scale hardness check, these pencils were exactly on scale where they are claiming to be. Paint on these pencils are very nice. While holding them, they feel exactly like the regular Lumos. And after a few hours of testing these, I will admit that these are better than the regular Lumograph set, and they are slightly above the faber-9000 series, however, they fall short of being as good as the faber Pitt-Matte set. Why? Well they just don’t have that matte charcoal finish that the Pitt set is able to achieve. I have also did a review on that set if you happen to stumble across it here on Amazon. Listen, don’t get me wrong, these pencils are definitely in a serious race here. And could possibly be in the top 5th or 6th place of the best woodcase pencils being made. And I don’t have to tell you there are thousands of wood case pencil companies. Hundreds of them claiming to be the best artist grade pencils. If you can make it into the top 10 on my list, your pencils are definitely worth buying. And these Lumo Blacks are definitely on my list. These are the types of pencils that make you want to draw. I know you are not bound down to artistic creativity by tools, however, any artist will tell you, you can only get as good as the tool will let you. So when you by cheap supplies, your progress will only go so far before you must upgrade to better supplies or your abilities will fall short of your capable talents. ...A set like this will not only help you achieve better work, but will also make you strive to push them and yourself to higher levels of progression. I definitely suggest buying this set and testing them out for yourself. Or if you are also a collector like myself, add this set into your collection. I always buy 2 sets of every pencil so I will always have a brand new set to put into my massive pencil collection. I hope this review helps out
