3. History
It was 1761, when cabinet maker Kaspar Faber,
settled in Stein, near Nuremberg in Germany, to
make his first simple pencils. He took extra care to
plane and glue each of them by hand. This quality
craftsmanship proved worthy, and at the Nuremberg
market, the sales of his pencils flourished. The Family
Dynasty of Pencil makers had begun.
4. The Mid 19th Century, saw his Great Grandson Lothar Faber,
transform the company. He mechanized production, achieving a
consistency of quality previously unheard of.
He invented the hexagonal pencil, and created standards for pencil
size and grades of hardness still in use today. His products were
marked A. W. Faber, after his Grandfather Anton Wilhelm.
These were the first ever Brand Name
Writing products, and amongst the
earliest branded articles in the world.
5. Offices were opened in New York, London, Paris, Vienna and St
Petersburg. A. W. Faber products were winning Exhibition
Certificates, Awards and Medals all over the World.
In 1898, Ottilie married Count Alexander zu Castell, the family
name became Faber – Castell. Shortly after the turn of the century,
a new Castle was built in the grounds next to production facility.
6. The simple pencil manufacturer has developed into a World Leader in stationaries ,
also extending into private label Cosmetics. Today, after 244 years, the Faber –
Castell Company is more successful than ever before. Throughout 8 Generations,
spanning 3 Centuries of operation, the family’s vision has remained the same.

25. In 1905 Count Alexander brought out a new range of top-quality pencils,
which he called Castell. To distinguish them from his competitors, Count
Alexander chose his regimental color for the paint coating: green.
Over the years, the Castell pencils became a classic. Count Alexander also
commissioned a painting of two “knights of the pencil”, an advertising motif
that decorated the boxes and cases for decades.
Later it was considered rather old-fashioned and was dropped. But in the early
1990’s, when the present Count was creating a new corporate image for the
company, the knights were reinstated as a symbol of the Faber-Castell brand.
In stylized form, they are now an essential part of the company logo.
