What an honor to have Blackwing Pencils celebrate the meeting of the Maestro and pop icon George Harrison with the newest edition to their limited edition 602 pencil sets. The pencils feature Blackwing’s unparalleled extra-firm graphite and a matte turmeric finish accented with a pattern inspired by one of Ravi’s iconic sitars. The pattern prominently features the ॐ (Om), a sacred Sanskrit symbol with three phonetic components that correlate to the waking, dream, and unconscious states of being.
A portion of every purchase goes toward the Ravi Shankar Foundation, whose ongoing mission includes the preservation of recordings by the Maestro, the continued expansion of dialog between East & West, and carrying on Ravi Shankar’s legacy: Peace through Music.
