Antique Mother of Pearl telescopic Pencil
A charming and elegant antique ladies’ propelling pencil, crafted in gold-filled metal with luminous mother-of-pearl panels. This Victorian or Edwardian-era writing accessory features finely chased scrollwork details at the cap and base, with a rotating mechanism that extends the pencil tip. A built-in bail allows it to be worn as a pendant or fob—perfect for a chatelaine or long chain. This piece is a novelty pendant, over 100 years old and does need to be open/closed with care. A lovely little piece of history than can be worn as a pendant.
