A pencil cap that works like a coiled spring — because why shouldn't protecting your tools be a little bit delightful?

Portuguese maker Viarco spent years in pursuit of the "original cap" for the pencil. The result is a stainless steel helix that absorbs impact, keeps tips intact, and makes a pencil bag-ready — no more arriving somewhere to find a broken tip. Functional, funny, and quietly brilliant.

Fits most round and hexagonal pencils. Arrives in a box of 8, because good ideas deserve company. Made in Portugal.
