The larger sibling of the Clairefontaine leather pencil case range — a generous, cylindrical round case made from genuine lambskin leather that holds a proper working collection of pens, pencils, and brushes in a format that is as elegant on a desk as it is practical in a bag. Where the smaller round cases suit a compact everyday carry selection, the 77015C at 21 x 6cm offers a significantly larger capacity — sufficient for a full artist's or writer's toolkit rather than just a few everyday essentials.
The case is made from genuine lambskin leather of superior quality, vegetable tanned with extracts of mimosa and quebracho, entirely without chromium or arsenic — the same ethically considered tanning process used consistently across Clairefontaine's leather goods range. The leather is supple and soft to the touch, smooth on the exterior, and develops a natural patina with regular use that improves the character of the case over time. The interior is lined with soft suede to protect nibs, tips, and barrels from scratching during carry. The metal zip with leather puller runs the full length of the case, opening smoothly and closing securely.
Part of the Age Bag collection — Clairefontaine's aged leather goods range with a vintage character that suits the creative desk and the location sketching bag in equal measure.
Dimensions: 21 x 6cm Material: Genuine lambskin leather Tanning: Vegetable — mimosa and quebracho extracts, chromium and arsenic free Interior: Soft suede lining Closure: Metal zip with leather puller Capacity: Up to 20 pens and pencils
How many pens does it hold? Up to 20 standard-size pens or pencils, making it suitable for a full working artist's or writer's toolkit rather than a small everyday carry selection.
How does it differ from the smaller Clairefontaine round leather cases? The 77015C is the large format — 21 x 6cm — giving significantly more capacity than the smaller versions in the range. The construction, leather quality, and tanning process are identical across the range. Choose the large format when you need to carry a comprehensive selection of tools; the smaller formats suit a more minimal everyday carry.
Is the leather ethically tanned? Yes — the lambskin is vegetable tanned using extracts of mimosa and quebracho, entirely without chromium or arsenic, consistent with Clairefontaine's commitment to responsible leather production across the range.
Is it suitable as a gift? Yes — the combination of genuine leather construction, generous capacity, and the elegant cylindrical format makes it an excellent gift for artists, writers, illustrators, and anyone who takes their tools seriously.
