What is a Pen Holder

Let’s start off with a little pen holder 101. Pen holders are much more than an office knick knack. The name “pen holders” are also commonly referred to as pencil cups, pen cups, pencil holders, pen stands, pen cases, desk organizers and many other names. You guessed it, the primary purpose is to hold a pen. Pencil cups are made in different types and with different decorative themes.

Pen Holder Type

Choosing a pencil holder type is fun and could easily shape the feel and productivity in your workspace. Some people are all form and no function, and their pen holders look more like art than a work center. Contrarily, others are multi-taskers and need a place for highlighters, scissors, tape and pens. Which type are you looking for?

• Cup – Your pens are placed in a cylinder or box that can loosely hold many pens in one container. Pen cups are probably the most common type of pen holders and are popular gifts for everyday desks.
• Stand – Generally holds a single pen in one receptacle that is custom fitted to a matching pen. Mimicking the old fashioned quill pen holders for bird feather pens, pen stands are generally artistic and fashionable centerpieces to an already ornamental desk.
• Do-It-Yourself – Homemade pen holders can do anything you want them to do. Technically not a specific category but hand made pen holders are a unique breed of desk organizers.
• Case – Travel container to protect several pencils at one time. Often used for travel or student use, Pen cases are very convenient for artists who visit scenery with an array of different pencils.
• Desk Organizer – Think Swiss Army knife for your desk. Desk Organizers are multi-functional canisters for offices, offering places to store pens, scissors, files, business cards, and other office doo-dads.
• Travel – Think Swiss Army Knife for the road. Pens are convenient when you’re traveling far from home, which is why this special category of pen holders was created.
