Made by the oldest German pencil sharpener manufacturer, the DUX Pencil Sharpener (1950s) is a classic desk accessory for the style-conscious efficiency expert. The double-bladed stainless steel sharpener is screwed securely into the lid so your pencil shavings collect inside the cup. The simple black casing, an exact replica of the original 1950s design, is molded Bakelite. Opposing ridge patterns on the sides of the base and lid allow for a better grip when opening and closing the box to empty your shavings. The DUX Magnetic Paper Clip Holder, designed as part of a series, corresponds nicely with the Pencil Sharpener. Made in Germany.
