ARCHIVIST'S NOTES
The Sateen was a British-made wood-cased graphite pencil produced by the Cumberland Pencil Co. Ltd. of Keswick, England — the firm now trading as Derwent. Catalogued as model 166 in graphite grades including H, HB and 2H, it had a hexagonal barrel finished in dark red lacquer with a gold imprint reading "BRITISH MADE / CUMBERLAND PENCIL CO. LTD. / 'Sateen' 166", and was listed as a drawing pencil. It is a vintage line, long out of production and now found only as a collector's item.
This specimen: Cumberland Sateen in grade HB.
