The way we hold our pen contradicts the circular shape of the writing utensil, prompting Nina Lee of Article Brand to produce a semi-circular pen design that's both durable and ergonomic. The innovative design deviates from the traditional shape of a pen, providing your thumb and index finger with a flat surface to rest on. The enhanced grip offers the additional benefit of more comfortable and reliable pen strokes. In addition to the ergonomics, the stainless steel pen offers users a device with a sleeker texture, resulting in an experience that writes as elegantly as it feels.
The semi-circle pen is robust, providing confident strokes, with a flat surface that offers a solution to the circular writing devices continuously rolling off of elevated surfaces. This pen "fits gracefully into your pocket, or rests confidently on your desk."
