What Sort of Jewel . . . Diamonds, Perhaps?

I've seen a few "Jeweltone" pencils over the years, always in blue, but until recently I never quite ponied up enough to bring one home.   That changed a little while ago, when this one was a sleeper in an online auction. 

The quality on these isn't the best. The plating is very thin, and they are your typical middle joint, nose drive pencil, although the plastic is really outstanding . . .

NOTE:  This article is now included in the print version of The Leadhead's Pencil Blog, available anywhere you buy books, or also from The Legendary Lead Company.
