Solid Brass Pen Rest
This solid brass desk rest offers a tactile and visually appealing home for your pen.
A home for your ideas. The focus of our desks is often a computer screen. I, however, am routing for the underdog in this battle for our attention - the pen. It's still the tool which gives us the most creative freedom and as one of my hero's John Cleese said:
We don't know where we get our ideas from. What we do know is that we do not get them from our laptops.
It's the reason I designed this desk rest as the perfect place to keep your pen, making it the first thing you grab to create your next big idea.
Machined from solid brass, it is as tactile as it is beautiful. Brass naturally patinas over time, you can choose to embrace this change in appearance or polish it back to its gleaming best with a small amount of metal polish.
Measures: 45mm in diameter
Weight: 75g
Pen not included.
I'm not one for overly ornate objects; much prefer simplicity of design combined with simplicity of function. Both of the rests are of high quality and also introduce a decorative presence.
I ordered this with my first ever fountain pen and love both of my purchases. There is something satisfying about the weight of the brass pen holder that makes me smile when I see it. It also helps me keep track of my Pocket Fountain Pen when I’m working. I am planning to purchase a Lumos soon and am wondering how many pen rests are too many?
Purchased as a graduation gift but haven’t given it yet.
Tres tres beau
Solid Brass Pen Rest
I love this little holder, it makes my pens easy to find on my desk, is very pretty, and keeps my pens from rolling about.
This pen rest is beautifully well made. I have the Studio fountain pen, which kept trying to roll off the desk in work, so I bought this pen rest to stop it escaping. It works brilliantly and looks really sophisticated and professional sitting on my desk. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting both practicality and a bit of sophistication for their desk.
This pen rest is lovely very robust nicely finished and looks lovely on my table. Fits many pens of all sizes.
Hoping for arrival in next few days! Ordered Dec 26 during holiday shut down so expected a bit of delay…..not dreaming it would be this long.
Perfect for my desk and pen. Lovely.
Understated and simple adornment to my desk
I have admired this beautiful rest since for a long time and finally gave in and I am very pleased I did because its not only beautifully made was we expect from all things Tom's Studio but its a useful addition to my desk - stops my Wren rolling across my diary and holds the page down at the same time whilst looking and feeling rather fabulous
Simple, stylish and sets my pen off beautifully
Old wonky desk & solid brass pen rest work beautifully together x
Like all of Tom’s products, this pen rest is a work of art. Beautiful to use, to have on my desk. I use it with the brass Lumos that is my everyday pen and a great writing instrument.
The best addition to my collection. Beautifully made and has a nice weight to it.
its perfect exactly as it suggests, beautifully finished, i have expensive fountain pens and its perfect for proptecting them
A joy to use
Beautiful pen, but having trouble with ink flow. Can’t write more than 3 sentences without having to use screw the pen and push out the ink. Very frustrating. In addition, my nib broke. I had to replace, thankfully it came with an extra replacement. Being that I invested in this pen I feel I have to buy a back up nib. Overall I really want to love this pen but the inconsistency with ink flow is a big problem for me. I don’t think I should have to consistently have to unscrew the pen in order to push out the ink. I love the balance and the smoothness of the nib, but the ink flow is inconsistent.
Really cute but pretty pricey for what it is
Just what I need for a small space. Works very well.
Apologies as unable to give a review as pen and rest was bought for a Christmas gift while I was in Uk as our son lives in Australia
The brass pen rest is the perfect compliment to my mini brass Lumos I love it and it looks absolutely Fab on my desk :)
Super pleased. It's very heavy and doesn't shift around. It looks gorgeous. Supports many pens very well. I have never had any sort of pen rest before and this is a lovely addition
Since getting back in to writing with fountain pens and drawing with pencils I wanted a nice pen rest and I found this one. It's nice and heavy and just what I was looking for.
Thanks Tom.
I have been doing calligraphy for many years and this is the best pen rest I own!
Thank you.
