Lovely Bunch of c. 1870s Slate Pencils with Gold Paper Wraps white enamel but is still in very

but is still in very good shape and this box is in really excellent structural shape

and this one appeals to me on all fronts

I believe this likely once had a basketry covered cap

Lovely Bunch of c. 1870s Slate Pencils with Gold Paper Wraps white enamel but is still in veryA beautiful set of antique slate pencils, just waiting for one of those antique slates I am so fond of (none in the shop just now, but I'll find one soon!) I do like just looking at these a bundle of possibilities; words and numbers yet to be written. I come across these now and then but I've never seen ones wrapped in gold, which makes them extra lovely and special feeling. c. 1870s. Approx 6 7 16" long. Sold as a set. In excellent condition.
