ARCHIVIST'S NOTES
The Bruynzeel High Grade 1605 is a bright-yellow, lacquered, hexagonal wood-cased graphite pencil from the Dutch maker Bruynzeel (founded 1948; part of Royal Talens since 2016). It was offered in eleven grades spanning 4H to 6B, with hardness coded by the colour of the dipped end cap (blue for hard grades, red for soft, black for HB). Originally made in the Netherlands as a general school, office and sketching pencil, this "High Grade" branding has been superseded by the line that continues in production today under the Burotek name.
This specimen: High Grade 1605 in grade 5B.
