The "Back to School" buzz likely has a lot of adults thinking of all things colorful for themselves. Marker sets, fine papers and colored pencils are a great escape for all ages, and designer Karl Lagerfeld is well aware of it. The limited edition KARLBOX from Faber-Castell unites the traditional values of the family-owned company with the modern, unique and innovative spirit and style of Lagerfeld. Only 2,500 pieces are available worldwide. Each box comes with a serial number plate and a certificate of authenticity.

The KARLBOX is a symbol for the long term relationship dating back to 1987 of both brands and represents the symbiosis of the fashion, art and design worlds. The couturier created a breathtaking bridal gown for the wedding between Count Anton-Wolfgang von Faber- Castell and his wife Mary, made from silk satin and tulle. This encounter with such a unique artist was the prelude to a long-standing cooperation. The Faber-Castell Art & Graphic product line unites the best of 255 years of company experience in the development and manufacture of exclusive artists´ products.
