Description


A rare thin ladies antique Victorian unmarked but tested 9 ct gold propelling pencil and dip pen. Hand engraved foliate scrolls design main body. The pencil has a twist action tip which extends & retracts the pencil lead mechanism. All pencil mechanisms are in excellent working order. The pencil comes complete with fitted period leads in a wooden tube.


This type of pencil is much rarer than normal due to it being far more difficult to make such a dainty scale. Only the top makers attempted to dare as the slightest error meant immediate breaking and failure.


Date C 1880 Stunning rare collectors item, I have included fitted 8 mm lead and lots of spares to keep you going. The stunning white stone shield finial hides a pot lead store.


It is museum worthy you will not find a better example unless you borrow my time machine.


The beautiful presentation gift box is included in the sale. This would make a stunning present or indulgent treat.


Maker
