They are designed by local artist Agelio Batle. What I like about them is they do not require any kind of sharpening, so that itself is a sustainable practice. It also does not smudge onto your hand when you use it. They're a bit pricey, but if you ever want to give someone a nice graduation gift, this is the way to go.
Olive Branch $36.00
Calla Lily $48.00
Calla Lilies are definitely one of my favorite flowers. They're so simple and elegant, which is why I love this piece. I'm sure when you use it, you'll feel a lot more sophisticated. Asparagus $48.00
Asparaguses are on my list of favorite vegetables. They're like flower buds that you can eat. They also kind of look like paintbrushes, which gives this piece a great meaning.
Quill $42.00
I love design that reverts modernity to antiquity. Whenever I think of quill pens, Benjamin Franklin pops up. It's so prim and proper, except this requires no ink.
Carrot $56.00If I had to choose a vegetable to be a writing utensil, a carrot would be perfect. It's pointed, so it'll only get dull when you don't slant it. There's a reason why it's so expensive; it's the best investment.
Pea Pod $48.00

Is there a rose one? That would be like the best Mother's Day gift ever.
