Description from the seller

This is a gilded dip pencil, I estimate from around 1900. The pencil can be advanced forward from the holder by a sliding ring. At the back there is a magazine for spare nibs under a nicely decorated screw cap. The pencil is in its original box. It has sustained some damage over time (see photo).
