Fowey River Antiques has dated this piece to the 1920s.
Sampson Mordan are the premier designers of exclusive top quality items and this pencil is no exception - it is most beautifully executed with engine turned decoration to the main body and is superbly balanced when held.
It is of course fully hallmarked and has the makers mark, there are no inscriptions.
The condition is quite remarkable and it looks as though it has hardly been used.
It weighs an incredible 16 grams and measures 103mm from the top of the bale to the end of the pencil.
This pencil certainly has that understated elegance that whispers class and would make a perfect gift.
