ARCHIVIST'S NOTES
The Bruynzeel Design 8615 was the Dutch maker's professional graphite drawing pencil and the direct predecessor of the current Design 8815. Made in Holland, it has a hexagonal barrel with a grey finish, black cap and red cap ring, and was produced across a range of grades (verified examples span a hard 2H through a very soft 9B). It is now discontinued, replaced by the round-barrelled 8815, and surviving pencils are sought after by collectors who praise its smooth, dark graphite.
This specimen: Design 8615 in grade 6B.
