Description

An elegant experiment in contrasting materials—a white ceramic insert nested within a gold metal frame creates a dual-layered structure that is “soft within and strong without.” The ceramic insert features a glossy white glaze, ensuring that pens rest against a smooth, gentle surface that won’t scratch their bodies. The outer gold metal frame—featuring an openwork or crisscross design—encases the ceramic, providing structural support while adding a layer of visual opulence. The gold frame is typically made of electroplated iron or brass and treated to resist oxidation and fading. A small gap between the metal and ceramic creates an insulating air layer, ensuring a comfortable touch that is neither too hot nor too cold. This “gold-encased-in-jade” style design elevates the pen holder from a mere functional container to a miniature desktop art piece, perfect for a detail-oriented office desk or a boutique checkout counter.
