A Late 19th Century 10ct Gold Mordan and Co. Sliding Fob Pencil.

This very fine example of a gold sliding pencil was produced by the top English pen and pencil manufacturer Mordan and Co and bears their name on its stem with the factory arrow mark which indicates it is made from gold at least 10cts in quality.

The pencil is hidden within the hollow stem and can be withdrawn for use by pushing the raised ring forward. The pencil appears to be original. On the opposite end, there is a ring for mounting onto a watch or neck chain.

This lovely example is very pleasing and tactile to hold and use. It is in excellent original condition with very little signs of use.

Sizes open: Height 1cm x width 11cm x depth 1cm

Sizes closed: Height 1cm x width 7cm x depth 1cm

English, circa 1890

Robert Belcher Antiques was established in 1984 and is a high-quality retailer of interesting, rare antiques and decorative objects. After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.

Please enjoy viewing their collection of rare and interesting pieces and have the assurance that Robert and Wendy will do their utmost to make sure your experience is exceptional, as has been recognised by many customers who have bought with confidence regularly over the years.
