All metal click pen with body crafted from ancient, reclaimed wood.

Holding something that is thousands, or tens of thousands years old gives us perspective on how small and precious our moments, days, and years are. When wood that ancient is handcrafted into a writing tool, it lets us focus on leaving our mark. The Ancients Series crafts three woods that have witnessed the whole of human history (and then some) into a tool that fits perfectly into your daily life.

All of our ancient woods come from trees that fell thousands of years ago or trimmings from ancient trees that are still standing. Reclaiming wood is best for our forests, and the stories are better, too.

  • Made with your choice of ancient woods from 3,000-50,000 years old. Read their stories below.
  • Precision-machined body of solid aluminum or brass is lightweight and extremely durable.
  • German-made, full metal click mechanism by Schmidt.
  • Refill with Parker style refills.Tons of options and very easy to find.
  • Collection also includes a mechanical pencil as well as a pen and pencil set.
  • Made in Chicago and guaranteed for life.

A story spanning millennia

Check out this brief timeline that sets each of the three ancient woods in the context of human history, and learn what was happening in the world when these trees were alive!

Ancient Kauri

It's called ancient kauri, and it's up to 50,000 years old. Yes, 50,000! The oldest workable wood in the world, ancient kauri shows just the earliest signs of petrification. Called "whitebait," this phenomenon creates small veins of mineral deposits that give the wood a one-of-a-kind luminescence.

50,000 years ago, in what is now Northern New Zealand, a major natural event felled huge forests of kauri trees that had been growing for some 2,000 years. This event also created bogs in the area that protected these giants from the elements. Today these trees are typically found under farmland from which they are carefully excavated before the ground is returned to its previous contours.

Just for some perspective, here are a few things that happened on Earth less than 50,000 years ago…

  • 16,000 years ago the depressions that would become the Great Lakes were fully formed.
  • The last Ice Age ended approximately 5,000 years ago.
  • Homo Sapiens reached the area from which these trees were recovered only around 40,000 years ago.

Bog Oak

No, this wood isn't stained black. 5,000 years in a peat bog in the Ukraine have naturally turned these huge, ancient oak trees black all the way through.

At the end of the last ice age rising water levels caused huge oak forests throughout Europe to die standing and fall into the muck. For the last 3,500 - 5,000 years these trees have been preserved in anaerobic conditions underneath peat bogs.

The ages have turned bog oak a deep black with dark brown grain. This is the result of a chemical reaction that occurred between the tannins in the oak and soluble irons present in the bog soil.

Bethlehem Olivewood

Each piece of this gorgeous wood is completely unique. The beautiful grain of Bethlehem olivewood can be straight, curly, dark, light, swirling... You get the gist.

Throughout Israel there are olive groves that have grown for over 2,000 years. These trees saw Rome rise and eventually fall. They watched much of Biblical history unfold, and they still stand today to bear witness to the trials faced by the region.

These trees are highly protected; those who maintain them gather branch trimmings and deadfall and make them available to tourists and woodworkers.

Impressed!
Size: 1 Case Teaspoons (1000)
Wow! Instead of arriving in a huge box with spoons in disarray, these came in an easy to store box with the contents neatly packaged.

Low price matches low quality.
Size: 1 Case Teaspoons (1000)
You get what you pay for. There is a reason that these spoons are 1/2 the cost of a more durable Dixie branded teaspoon. These are just too flimsy. Will not buy again; lesson learned.

These are perfect and exactly what I needed, great quality. They are a lot cheaper than in the grocery store. And I won't be running out any time soon!

Cheap but expected, worked as intended, none of them broke.
Size: 1000 Teaspoons
Seems to be cheap quality but what else can you expect for the price? I needed something cheap that would work for cold foods, and these delivered. They lasted me forever and I didn’t have any break, I just didn’t trust them with super hot foods. I will buy again in a heartbeat though because for everything else they work great. They are small spoons that don’t hold much, bend easily, are really lightweight and I wish they came in portions or wraps because after opening they sat there collecting dust through the hole in the box and so I had to transfer them to a closed container for sanitary purposes. Again though, I didn’t really expect anything else, so I’m happy regardless.
