E. Wolff and Sons was founded in 1796. Their products were extremely popular and found in markets all over the world. The Falcon Pencil Works opened in 1878 but closed in the early 1920s after a merger with B. S. Cohen to become Royal Sovereign Pencil Company Limited.

This is a very rare piece of stationary history, made by appointment for H.R. The King, this fine piece remains in complete original working condition and retains some of the original pencils by E.Wolff’s. I great display case and would make a lovely conversational piece.
