Staedtler is one of the world's most established pencil manufacturers, with roots dating back to 1662 and officially founded by Johann Sebastian Staedtler in Nuremberg, Germany, in 1835. Operating today under the name Staedtler Mars GmbH & Co. KG, the brand is considered the largest wooden pencil manufacturer in Europe.

The brand's most distinctive feature is the Mars Lumograph series, which it developed in the early 1900s. With its consistent degrees of hardness and break-resistant graphite mixture, this series has become a standard in the technical drawing and art community; the hardness grade indicator on the body of each pencil makes it easy to find the right one.

The collection includes Mars Lumograph graded pencils (in various hardness degrees from H to B, available individually and in sets), Mars Lumograph Charcoal sketch pencils, Noris and Tradition series pencils for daily use, and Fimo polymer clay for sculpture and modeling. These products cater not only to technical drawing, charcoal work, and sketching needs but also to hobbyists and craft enthusiasts who work with polymer clay.

As one of Staedtler's authorized retailers in Turkey, Karin Sanat maintains a complete stock of the brand’s pencil and Fimo product ranges. All products are supplied through official distribution channels with an original product guarantee and are offered at our Fatih and Nişantaşı stores as well as through karinsanat.com.
