Erasers and pencil sharpeners for your pencil case

Erasers and sharpeners for school and drawing

Erasers and sharpeners belong in every pencil case. Here you'll find erasers for pencil and ink as well as sharpeners for regular, colored and jumbo pencils, for school, the office and your sketchbook, from brands such as Faber-Castell, Maped and Staedtler.

How to find the right eraser and sharpener

For pencil, a soft eraser works well because it lifts the graphite without roughening the paper. Ink erasers are firmer and remove the ink along with a very thin layer of paper, so the paper shouldn't be too thin.

With sharpeners, the opening is what counts: regular pencils fit the small opening, while thick jumbo and triangular pencils need the larger hole on a double sharpener. A shavings container keeps everything together so your pencil case and desk stay clean, which is especially handy for kids.

• Erasers for pencil, ink and rollerball pens
• Soft erasers, including PVC-free ones, for clean corrections
• Sharpeners for regular, colored and jumbo pencils
• Single and double sharpeners, with or without a container
• Ergonomic models for children's hands

Tip: If the lead keeps breaking while you sharpen, the blade is often dull or the pencil was damaged inside by a fall. In the first case, a new sharpener quickly solves the problem.
