Christie handmade 5.6mm sketch pencil/ ballpoint pen

DENUDÉ — Padauk 5.6 mm Clutch Pencil

The Denudé Collection explores the beauty of what usually remains hidden.

Inspired by architectural sections and exposed structures, part of the wooden body is carefully carved away to reveal the pencil’s internal mechanism. The opening is not simply decorative; it transforms the mechanism into an essential part of the composition, creating a continuous dialogue between interior and exterior, solid and void, nature and engineering.

Hand-shaped from richly coloured Padauk wood, the sculptural body follows the natural grain rather than imposing a rigid geometry upon it. Its flowing surfaces contrast with the precision of the metal mechanism, bringing warmth and technology into balance.

Like a building that reveals its structure instead of concealing it, Denudé expresses honesty in both material and construction. Nothing is disguised. The mechanism becomes architecture, and the pencil becomes more than a drawing instrument—it becomes a small space for an idea.

The 5.6 mm clutch mechanism can also be transformed into a ballpoint pen at any time using its interchangeable converter. A sharpener is integrated into the pusher, while replaceable leads—from H and HB to B–5B—make it ideal for sketching, shading, crafting, drafting and architectural drawing.
