Antique Victorian solid sterling silver propelling pencil. Cylindrical shaped plain body with a stepped band at the bottom, an attached suspension loop & ring at the top & monogrammed initials on the side. By pulling the bottom band the pencil extends it's four drawer sections & the internal propelling pencil tip. The pencil tip has a twist action tip which extends & retracts the pencil lead mechanism. All the mechanisms are in excellent working order & the tip comes complete with a pencil lead inside. Stamped on the outside of the body with the makers mark. Lovely collectors item.
