“The act of putting pen to paper encourages pause for thought, this in turn makes us think more deeply about life, which helps us regain our equilibrium.” Norbet Platt

A Pen For Every Hand

E-mail Print PDF

Small pens, big pens; fat pens, slim pens; twist pens, click pens; ball point pens, roller ball pens, fountain pens; the choices seem endless. Well, they're not endless, but even if you just look at the different pen styles, colours, platings, and materials, the possible combinations number in the hundreds of thousands! So, everyone should be able to find a pen that matches their own tastes and style.

As incredible as it sounds, some handcrafted pens are priced at over one million dollars! The Aurora Diamante contains over 30 carats of De Beers diamonds on a solid platinum barrel. It has a two-tone, rhodium-treated, 18KT solid gold nib and is personalized with a coat of arms, signature or portrait. Aurora Pens says it is the only over 30 carat pen in the world. It is believed to be worth around one million euros! If you're looking for a pen in that class, I'm sorry (and I really mean I'm sorry), but you've taken a wrong turn somewhere. However, for the rest of you, let's take a look at SOME of the options available to you at Old Yale Penworks.

Welcome to the Old Yale Penworks website.

We're open for business even while the site is still under construction.

Please feel free to look around, but watch your step; We don't want you to get "html" all over your clothes!

(If you're not familiar with "html" (hypertext markup language), don't worry, neither are we; but we've been assured that it doesn't stain!)

Mother's Day; Father's Day; school graduations; they're all coming up fast and you're trying to come up with a great gift. Well, might we suggest a new pen!

When looking for that perfect gift for a birthday, a retirement, a graduation, or whatever, give some thought to a personal writing instrument (fancy name for pen) that will remind the recipient of you every time they use it.

OK, if you've found your way here, you were probably hoping to look at pens; and quite frankly we'd love to show you some. To that end, we've cleaned up a couple pages and put up some photos for you to take a look at; and while you do that we'll continue to develop the rest of the site behind the scenes.

To view some of our exclusive handcrafted pens, please follow the "Pen Galleries" link, or click here.

After viewing the pens we currently have available for sale, be sure to check out the gallery of pens that have been sold. If you see anything you like there, we've also activated our contact link so that you can send us a note and we can talk about creating something similar just for you. Also, if you have your own ideas about a style, material or colour you would like, we'd love the chance to try and make it happen for you.

 Please bookmark this page and check back periodically to see what's changed. Down the road we will be adding an option for you to receive automatic updates when new pens are added.

 

Thank you
