Yard O Led The Mayflower mechanical pencil

The Mayflower mechanical pencil by Yard O Led combines masterful craftsmanship with modern design. The floral pattern is a delicate interpretation of the hand engraving technique of the 19th century. The English roses, with their buds and leaves, wind elegantly around the silver casing and are reminiscent of an English country dance.

The Mayflower rose is found in many English country gardens and grew in the garden of James Watt's country house, around the jewellery quarter of Birmingham which developed from 1780 onwards and to which the Yard O Led workshop recently moved. James Watt, the inventor of the steam engine and considered the father of the Industrial Revolution, left his mark on this historic place, which is now the home of the Yard O Led brand.

The name The Mayflower also refers to the famous British ship that sailed the first pilgrims across the Atlantic, and represents Yard O Led's increased international export, with sales in over twenty countries worldwide.

The Mayflower Edition mechanical pencil is unique to the Yard O Led collection as it has no clip, giving it a lighter feel that matches its delicate pattern. A lone rosebud sits on a bed of leaves. These hand-stamped mechanical pencils are made from high-quality 925 Sterling silver and are numbered on their caps, giving them an individual touch. They also come with a lifetime guarantee.
