Built upon the Strong Customer and Supplier Relationships Established through Three Generations.

Palomino Brands is a division of California Cedar Products Company dedicated to bringing high-quality writing and stationery products to students, teachers, writers, artists, musicians and creatives around the world. It’s family of Palomino Original, Blackwing, ForestChoice, Golden Bear and Prospector pencil and stationery products are known for quality and usability.

Cal Cedar introduced the Palomino Original graded range of premium pencils to such critical acclaim that users began comparing their performance to that of the famous Eberhard-Faber Blackwing pencil, which had since been discontinued. Cal Cedar soon expanded its Palomino umbrella to revive the iconic Blackwing brand, introducing it to a new generation of emerging artists.

Cal Cedar is also responsible for the historic ForestChoice line of eco-friendly products, including the ForestChoice graphite pencil, the world’s first FSC-certified pencil. Palomino’s spirit of innovation and dedication to quality helps ensure that all of their products reflect the same creativity they hope to inspire.
