Do tell and do show your pen
InkyFingers:
I see. It came in a box of useless thing from evilBay.
I paid for the gold pen and these other things came along.
At first, I thought it to be a nib holder for the Spencerian No 12. For sure, not the larger nibs of Gillott No 1 or even the smaller Gillott 170.
Thanks Michael for your insight.

Looks great for scooping pigments and scraping mistakes. Calligraphy...the latest drug.

One end is an eraser?
One end is a snuff spoon?
or is it a javelin?

This is a tooth pick and earwax remover.
I had recently found an E-book on HISTORY ON FOLEYS GOLD DIP PENS .
There's a page on all the products of them and they have line of these instruments . So these portable instruments seems to have being used as they were using their writing tools .

LOL - it does look like a toothpick and ear wax remover!
