Dating to the late Victorian era to perhaps the early 20th century this fine example of Victorian craftsmanship is simply charming.
Designed as a propelling pencil and crafted in gold cased style quite typical of the era, with fine engraved detailing throughout.
Studded with round Turquoise cabochons to the slider and to the top a a pale blue paste stone.
Complete with her sliding bale ring this little charmer can easily accommodate a chain and worn as a pendant.
Quite remarkably she retains an original piece of lead however we cannot confirm how long this is! Retracted she measures 4.8cm and extended a lovely 6.3m.
