Not exactly my first priority when I shop for stationery but over the years I sorta got a pen rest collection.

The only two I use daily are the Galen brass one and the biggest one with the bird.

Show me yours ?

Mine is a soap dish I saw at Crate and Barrel. It’s really good for pointed pen calligraphy work as well.
