This high quality antique sliding pencil has a hexagonal barrel with hand engraving. It's sterling silver (tested) and has a foliate ring to push out the nozzle. The nozzle has all of its parts and is in good working order (twists out the lead).
The ornate finial has a round seal set with a beautiful amethyst color stone. The silver is in fabulous condition . It measures 3 1/2 inches closed and 4 1/4 inches extended. Several pencils of this style are shown on pp. 68-69 of Deborah Crosby's book Victorian Pencils.
