Sold by the Japanese stationery brand Tsukushi, the Pencil Cap is manufactured in a spring factory in Tokyo. The quirky design solves the issue of unexpectedly breaking pencil tips while carrying them in bags or pockets. While its functionality is undeniable, it also boasts a sleek and twirled metal design.
The spring-shaped cap not only protects the sharpened pencil tip but also allows users to carry their pencils around like a pen. In addition, it protects users' pockets from being marked up with led. The Drill Design company created the Pencil Cap design. It is currently available for purchase through Tsukushi and comes in two colors. Users can choose between a sleek silver shade or a modern gold color.
