Bruynzeel was founded in 1897 as Stoomtimmerfabriek in Rotterdam, by Cornelis Bruynzeel Sr. Its origin included the production of wooden floorboards, wood shaving products, and school desks. In 1948 the company received a request from the Dutch government to supply pencils, which evolved into the production of other writing, hobby, and office supplies.
Since then, Bruynzeel continued to develop and innovate, their ethos being that every drawing is an expression of imagination, that should be shared with the world. Whether you’re a beginner to the art world, call yourself a keen artist or you’re even a professional; Bruynzeel have a wide range of professional colouring pencils, graphite pencils and pen sets to help you ignite your creativity.
