Pencils were originally pieces of lead with string wrapped around them. When people started to make wooden casings for the pencils, they used high quality wood and covered the wood with varnish to show off the quality. The demand for wooden pencils rose, so people started to use lesser quaility wood and used paint on the wood. Therefore, the paint became a sign of cheapness. One man used a kind of graphite in his pencils instead of lead. He painted his pencils bright yellow and named his pencil the Koh-ih-noor, after the legendary Indian diamond, to make his pencils stand out. His pencils were so popular that other pencil makers started to paint their pencils yellow and naming them after jewels as well.
A yellow pencil appears yellow because it reflects yellow light waves while absorbing other colors. The pigment or dye used to color the pencil is designed to selectively reflect yellow light, giving it its yellow appearance.

The original pencil was made yellow by the L & C Hardtmuth Company in the 1890s as a marketing strategy to associate the color yellow with royalty and luxury. The color yellow was seen as a symbol of excellence and high quality, helping the company to stand out among its competitors.

I believe it means "yellow pencil."
The matter in a yellow pencil primarily consists of wood, graphite, and a yellow paint or coating. The wood provides structural support, while graphite serves as the writing core, allowing for smooth application on paper. The yellow paint adds visibility and aesthetic appeal. Additionally, the pencil may contain eraser material at one end, typically made of rubber or a similar substance.
