Writing Tools

Writing tools with character and everyday use

Writing tools should feel good in the hand and still bring a little personality to the desk. Start with how the pen or pencil will be used, then choose the theme, nib style, size and portability that suits the collector, student or stationery fan.

What to compare

• Writing comfort: check grip, barrel size and pen style if it will be used often.
• Theme or character: a familiar design makes stationery feel giftable rather than random.
• Desk role: some writing tools are practical daily picks, while others are better as display or novelty pieces.
• Pairing potential: pens work well with journals, notebooks, desk accessories and small fandom gifts.
