20thC English Art Deco Solid Silver Desk Set & Mechanical Pencil, London c.1936
About the Item
A superb 20th Century English solid silver Art Deco desk set, comprising a mechanical pencil, notepad with paper, two pen holders, and a small rest to prevent ink from dripping directly onto the desk. The pencil secures a hinged, sprung lid that keeps the notepad closed; once removed, the lid lifts to allow access to the paper. The initials “KS” are applied on the lid. Notably, the pencil rests were made by Samson Mordan and the base was made by Asprey & Co, potentially on commission.
Hallmarked English solid silver (925 standard), London, year 1936 (A), Maker's mark SM&Co (Sampson Mordan & Co). On the rear of the base, it is marked "A&Co Ltd (Asprey & Co Ltd).
