Decorative and symbolic, this pen rest is decorated with Napoleon symbols such as the crown, laurel leaves, the imperial eagle and the N of the Emperor Napoleon. It mainly accommodates a dip pen, preventing it from rolling on the desk. The metal nib is delicately caught in a small hole inside the pen rest balancing the pen holder vertically and adding volume to a desk.
Molded from natural tin in France, it is both durable and recyclable.
L'Ecritoire offers two models, in natural pewter and with a bronze finish. The addition of the bronze color on the support requires additional manufacturing manipulation explaining the difference in price between the two models.
