As the title says…what’s your favorite pencil packaging?
Just one simple rule - it has to be commercial packaging that a mechanical pencil was sold in. No pen cases, custom stuff, dealer specials, etc. And please include photos
I’ll kick things off with this magnificent wood (rosewood?) case that the Porsche Design Arc line came with…

Other than my PD wood cases, there aren’t too many that stick out for me. Does the wooden stand that comes with the Parafernalia count?

It absolutely does count! Those Revolution stands are very cool!

My nominee is the FC Da Vinci, I’m pretty sure it was also offered only by FC Brazil so it has a “home” feel to it.

Those stands are super cool. Unfortunately all the ones I have have pretty poor quality control.

I’m surprised @atxalais hasn’t put up his favorites yet!

What a crappy decision by Pentel.
Sadly I own a few sets of these.

The DaVinci case is identical to the PD Classic Line case, just using a different wood.

Hah I thought I got a bad one! Looks like they just didn’t bother with any sort of finishing on those blocks of wood.

This is the LOL version (the slutty children’s toy) of mechanical pencils.

Good eye! The inside is pretty much the same as well, but I think the DaVinci’s packaging is prettier because of the lettering.

I agree! I love the contrasting wood as well. It’s really well done.
