How to choose
Writing gifts here divide into three jobs: a pen someone carries, a desk set that stays put, and an award that marks an occasion. Decide which one you are buying and the list narrows immediately.
| A pen to carry and use | Choose the Engraved Eco Friendly Bamboo Ballpoint Pen or a rosewood pen when the gift should be used daily. The rosewood options come in a gift box, which suits a formal presentation. |
|---|---|
| A crystal desk name plate set | Choose it when the recipient has a desk and the gift should announce their name. The leadership globe version suits executives and managers; the sports versions suit coaches, athletic directors and team offices. |
| A sports achievement award | Choose the maple wood baseball bat pen award or the rosewood football pen holder for a banquet, a season-end presentation or a player recognition where the award should sit on a shelf. |
| A desk accessory that does two jobs | Choose the Rotatable Sides Metal Dice Clock and Pen Holder Set when desk space is tight or you want something less conventional than a plain pen stand. |
| A gift with meaning rather than a job title | Choose the Silver Christian Ichthus (Fish) Bookmark and Letter Opener for a faith-based occasion, a graduation or a thank-you where the gift is personal rather than corporate. |
Ordering Writing + Pen Sets for weddings and events

Company logos are handled by custom order: send a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to [email protected]; a logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be reproduced. Order 3–6 months ahead for a wedding. Standard production is 5–10 business days, rush 3–5 and expedite 1–3, plus 2–5 days US shipping. For bulk pricing, please contact [email protected].

Are these good corporate or promotional gifts?
Yes. Bamboo and rosewood pens work as conference and client giveaways, and the crystal desk name plate sets with pen stand work as executive, leadership and long-service recognition.
Is there a minimum order for promotional pens?
No. There is no minimum order, so you can buy one pen for a single graduate or order enough for a full staff, team or conference list.
Can each pen or desk set have a different name on it?
Yes. Order the full quantity, then email your list of names to [email protected] after ordering so it can be matched to your order. This is how companies handle staff recognition orders.
Can I put my company logo on the pens?
Logos are handled by custom order. Email a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to [email protected]. A logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be reproduced.

Standard production is 5–10 business days, with rush at 3–5 and expedite at 1–3, plus 2–5 days shipping in the US. Plan ahead for a banquet or conference date.
Can I see a proof before the pens are personalized?
Yes, proofs are optional on request for a $35-55 service fee per proof, and a proof adds days to production. Changes after a proof carry a $40 minimum updating fee, so check names, titles and spelling carefully. Ask in your order notes or call Customer Support at 310-878-9429.
Do you ship personalized pens internationally?
International shipping is by request. The shopping cart calculates US shipping only and international orders cannot be rushed, so email [email protected] for a quote and allow extra time.
