I am a Pen Case. Life throws twist and turns at you all the time. The important thing to remember is how to pull yourself together and get back up after the world tears you apart.

Curator's Notes 

This pen case screws together to create a sleek cylindrical case. Made from solid wood, the two parts connect to continue the line of the natural wood grain.

“Kime” means texture or wood grain in Japanese and each Kime product features the unique qualities of the wood it is made from. The sleek shapes and smooth texture highlight the outstanding skill of the craftsmen who make each piece in Asahikawa, Japan.
