On the fourth day of Christmas my true love gave to me a chance to relax We love gifts that encourage the lifestyle we aspire to: slower, more peaceful and with time to reflect. With so many worthy causes and activities calling for our involvement, how lovely to give someone permission, if you will, to take an afternoon off with delicious tea and a journal.

Whether they’re used for leisurely activities like letter writing or journaling (both of which we encourage), or those necessary tasks like the weekly grocery list, a weighty pen with velvety ink makes writing easier and the task at hand more fun.
