Type  Mechanical pencil

Product Name  Silver Imperial. We've noticed two different shapes for the diamond grid pattern on these Silver Imperials. This version has diamond grids that are like squares turned on their sides, and matched the touchdown version of the Silver Imperial fountain pen, whereas the other version has the diamond grids in a more elongated shape and went with the cartridge/converter version of the Silver Imperial. Please look carefully at the photos if you are trying to get a pencil to match your ballpoint or fountain pen. You can send us a message if you'd like to see a photo of the two versions side-by-side .... we didn't want to include the photo in this listing for fear of confusing buyers.
