Faber-Castell is one of the world's largest and oldest manufacturers of pens, pencils, other office supplies (e.g., staplers, slide rules, erasers, rulers) and art supplies, as well as high-end writing instruments and luxury leather goods. Headquartered in Stein, Germany, it operates 14 factories and 20 sales units throughout the globe. The Faber-Castell Group employs a staff of approximately 7,000 and does business in more than 100 countries. The House of Faber-Castell is the family which founded and continues to exercise leadership within the corporation.
Although Faber Castell International's production began in Germany, only some of its premium pens are still manufactured there. Most of the company's consumer products are made in Brazil. Faber-Castell USA is headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio.
Founded in 1761 at Stein near Nuremberg by cabinet maker Kaspar Faber (1730–84), the enterprise has remained in the Faber family for eight generations. It opened branches in New York (1849), London (1851), Paris (1855), and expanded to Vienna (1872) and St. Petersburg (1874). It opened a factory in Geroldsgrün where slide rules were produced. It expanded internationally and launched new products under Kaspar Faber's ambitious great-grandson, Lothar (1817–96). In 1900, after the marriage of Lothar's granddaughter with a cadet of the Counts of Castell, the A.W. Castell enterprise took the name of Faber-Castell and a new logo, combining the Faber motto, Since 1761, with the "jousting knights" of the Castells' coat-of-arms.
For its 250th anniversary in 2011, Faber-Castell presented the highest artists' quality in its most beautiful form: the Art & Graphic jubilee cabinet combined the best from a couple of centuries of experience in developing and producing exclusive artists' products. Unfortunately this limited edition Art & Graphic Anniversary Case is no longer on stock! The official Faber-Castell webseite: http://www.faber-castell.com

So finally i purchased a small set of polychromos since so many people recommended them for me. And as expected they have high quality pigments, are excellent for details and rarely has breakage issues. So here i am doing a small demo of them on a rough watercolor paper. even on a rough paper, they work really well. This drawing took me around 1.5 hours. BGM -- Floaters from youtube audio library.
