Pen holder 925 silver — smooth, 8.5 cm, engravable

A cylinder made of 925 sterling silver, 8.5 centimeters high, weighing 140 grams, framed by a profiled base and a circumferential rim. In between: nothing. No motif, no factory engraving, no embellishment — just a smoothly polished surface that reflects the room's light.

Why the smooth surface is special

With a piece without decoration, there's nothing behind which imprecise craftsmanship could hide. Every dent, every irregularity in the curve would be immediately visible in the reflection. This is precisely why smooth silver pieces are more demanding to produce than embellished ones — and why they appear calmer.

The base and rim are profiled, meaning they are crafted with a fine stepped profile. These two lines enclose the cylinder and give it stability without adorning it.

Material and workmanship

925 sterling silver, highly polished, with a hallmark as proof of silver content. A self-weight of 140 grams ensures that the holder stands securely even when fully occupied. Manufactured by Zaramella Argenti in Italy, since 1948.

Engraving and SilberVerse Card

The smooth cylinder offers one of the largest contiguous engraving surfaces in the range — there is space for a name, a date, and a short dedication side by side. We carry out engravings upon request.

Upon request, we can include a personal SilberVerse card in photo format — individually designed, suitable for the occasion, and currently free of charge, also available without engraving.

What occasion is the pen holder suitable for?

For a career start and a promotion, where it stands as the first personal item on the desk. For school enrollment as a gift that takes the child's desk seriously from the beginning — it has no children's motif and therefore does not look out of place twenty years later. And as a corporate gift with an engraved dedication.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many pens fit inside?

At 8.5 cm high and the shown diameter, a comfortable handful of writing instruments. It also works well as a single holder for a good fountain pen.

Is it stable?

Yes. With 140 grams and the wide profiled base, it won't tip over even if the pens lean to one side.

Is it suitable for engraving?

Particularly well — the continuously smooth cylindrical surface offers ample space.

Does the silver tarnish?

Over time, yes; on a smooth surface, this is more noticeable than on an embellished one. A soft silver polishing cloth is sufficient.
