Victorian "Magpie Egg" Pencil Pendant bangles The red-wine burgundy stones areUtterly charming antique pendant (probs intended to be worn as a pocketwatch fob, back in the day) that's crafted in the likeness of a magpie egg. It's carved from wood and has been painted and polished, but the best part? Twist the top and a little propelling pencil pops out of the bottom, complete with lead. The metal is silver and it dates from the Victorian era, circa 1900. Era: Victorian, circa 1900 Size (open): 4. 6cm (including bail) by 1. 8cm
