History of LYRA

LYRA was founded in 1806 by Johann Froescheis in Nuremberg, Germany. What began as a small pencil factory grew into a brand known worldwide for its quality and craftsmanship. More than two centuries later, LYRA continues to manufacture tools that enable professionals to work accurately and efficiently. The philosophy is simple: marking must be reliable, practical and durable. Today, LYRA is part of F.I.L.A. Group, but the core remains unchanged: quality products for professionals who take their work seriously.
