Description This is a very rare and charming piece of antique stationery history. A highly decorative, cast metal figural pencil sharpener dating from the late 19th or early 20th century. Key Features: Authentic Antique: This item is over 100 years old, qualifying it as a true antique, not a modern reproduction.

Functionality: Designed as a small, portable, or "pocket" sharpener with a functional blade opening and a chamber for shavings inside the base. Collectability: A wonderful collectible item for enthusiasts of vintage office supplies, writing instruments, or historical desk
accessories. Condition: Good vintage condition with age-appropriate wear, including some minor finish loss and surface patina, as visible in the photos. The blade mechanism is intact and appears functional. Please examine all photos closely as they are part of the description.
