Black Teak Pen Box with Nib Pen

A small writing box for the traditional pen-and-ink desk.

Crafted from teak wood with a black finish, brass hinges and a small brass clasp, this compact pen box holds a wood-handled nib pen inside. Its long, narrow form recalls the simple cases once used to keep writing instruments protected and close at hand.

The included 7-inch wood-turned nib pen makes the box both a functional writing object and an evocative addition to a desk arranged around ink, paper and correspondence.

Selected by Boston Lore Studio for its connection to the material history of handwriting—the small tools and containers that once formed an ordinary part of the writing desk.
