YARD-O-LED

Piccadilly Necklace - Rose Garden

£395

Taking inspiration from our 200 year old history, YARD-O-LED have reimagined Samson Mordan’s original pencil necklace from the 1800s. The sterling silver phial holds a graphite pencil, carefully enclosed within the screw top lid which is unwound to double its length creating a full sized writing instrument.

The Piccadilly Necklace reflects the brands roots in sterling silver jewellery which Sampson Mordan is so revered for. The classically British silversmith, Sampson Mordan [1790 - 1834] created intricate designs, many with whimsical eccentricities.

The YARD-O-LED story dates back to his invention of the first propelling pencil. Prior to this, he manufactured more simple designs with graphite pencils or mechanical pencils with a singular retractable lead.

The Piccadilly Necklace is compact at 2 inches long and hung on a sterling silver chain. The sterling silver barrel is hallmarked and topped and tailed in a brass trim.

Hand-chased Rose Garden pattern with Red Ruby Stone setting.
