Unbelievable Pencil Sculptures

Pencil sculptures: miniature masterpieces carved

into graphite by Dalton Ghetti
The alphabet, all carved from pencil tips

A sculpture of Elvis Presley wearing shades, carved from a single pencil
This incredible work is a tiny saw, using both the wood and graphite of a single pencil


Dalton uses a sculpting knife to begin his latest creation

A tiny chain link, all carved from the same graphite centre of the pencil

A tiny key hangs from a ring
The pieces that didn't work are kept in this bizarre 'graveyard'. Dalton keeps all the works that broke off during the sculpt pinned into a block

Two interlocking hearts, carved from one pencil

Dalton hollowed out the centre of the wood, then carved the central column of graphite to create this hanging, linked heart

Carved from the graphite in a normal pencil: A tiny hammer



Carved from the graphite in a normal pencil: A tiny button



This carving shows a goblet being held by a hand, all carved from one pencil's graphite



Carved from the graphite in a normal pencil: A highly-detailed boot.
