  We did have yellow pens in Germany, but thinking back on it, the forest green of Faber-Castell [0] was the color I would associate with pencils the most.

    Also blue. Staedler was blue, with a black top.

      Our school Staedler HB pencils were all yellow and black such as these: https://www.glsed.co.uk/product/stationery/pencils/blacklead/staedtler-hb-graphite-noris-pencils-pack-of-72/g290387 https://www.glsed.co.uk/product/stationery/pencils/blacklead... The occassional ones were red and black, I think those were more likely to be 'B' or '2B' ones, but it's been longer than I can remeber since I used such a pencil.

  The default Bruynzeel pencils often used in schools in the Netherlands were yellow. But that may just be _my_ bubble.

  Dutch/limburg here, very rare to see those. I think mine were usually green (a brighter shade than the ones linked in a sibling thread), but not exclusively. We also had uncoloured and black for example.
