At Blackwing, we believe that slowing down and connecting with ourselves and the world around us leads to a more deliberate way of living. This begins with establishing meaningful practices like journaling or meditation.
We teamed up with Waking Up to create two limited edition sets of precision-crafted tools to complement your journey into mindfulness. They are available now exclusively to customers in the U.S., Canada, Australia, and New Zealand through the Waking Up Shop.

THE STORY
Writing by hand demands focus and intention, engaging your senses in a way that typing never can. The feeling of pencil on paper promotes clarity and calm, grounding you in the moment and creating space for deeper reflection.
Each pencil is adorned with a sleek gradient that evolves as you sharpen and the guiding phrases, "It is always now," "You are not your thoughts," "Where is your mind?," and "Begin again."

BLACKWING VOLUME 574
NATIVE AMERICAN ART PENCIL
For centuries, the Indigenous people of North America have preserved their histories through art. As more and more Native Americans were displaced by westward-expanding colonialism, art became a vessel for preserving their culture as well as their history. Their daily lives were recorded through paintings, songs, stories, and dances.
Native American art is both functional and beautiful, acting as a bridge to Indigenous cultures and offering a unique perspective on their history. These works enrich the lives of all North Americans, providing a window into the world through Indigenous eyes.
The Blackwing 574 is our tribute to Native American art and the 574 nations that use it to assert agency and identity. We worked with Kaw, Osage, Lakota artist Chris Pappan to design a pencil that evokes geometric patterns found throughout many Native American expressions of culture. Each pencil includes our firm graphite.
A portion of the proceeds from this release will be donated to the Cheyenne River Youth Project and their mission to provide enriching arts programs to Lakota youth on the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Reservation.
