Description
The carbon pencil is a type of pencil that combines the advantages of a graphite pencil and a charcoal pencil. It is less likely to break and is better for drawing with quick, expressive strokes.
Carbon pencils combine the advantages of a graphite pencil (sharp
lines) and a charcoal pencil (rich black lines) without the
disadvantage of breakage and excessive smudging. Carbon pencils
enable the artist to produce dramatic black marks, and are perfect
for rapid and expressive sketches and drawings.
