These lithographic pencils are used to draw onto a lithographic stone alongside or in place of Lithographic Ink (Tusche. ) Lithographic pencils are available in several forms and degrees of hardness. The very soft pencils (no. 5 for example) produce rich, smoky black lines, the harder ones (containing less grease) produce the lighter and finer tones. The hardest grade pencils can be sharpened with a pencil sharpener or a polisher. Lithographic crayons are also used in etching.
