With old things condition is important. The set on the left is hand painted over sterling silver, I believe they were called mosaic and were also offered on gold filled items. John Holland and Grieshaber also offered painted pens. The paint is fragile as you can see the damage to the pencil, luckily most of the paint on the pen is intact. The pen on the right is a little gold filled thing but it is also a great deal more.
