    A case with a glass top is hard to find. Especially one that is of such high quality. This did not fall off the assembly line, it has a hand crafted interior made to hold pens. This piece of furniture would look great in the office, den, living room, any where. If quality is important to you, go ahead and look at the others. Try to compare the mass produced pieces with this. Two different levels of quality and it is easy to tell which is which.
    This case was built for sale in the United States and Canada during the 60's or 70's out of quality solid Mahogany. All of the hardware is original.
    This beautiful piece of furniture was built to last generations.
    The exterior is protected with up to 15 layers of hand-applied polyurethane. This is a perfect example of mid-early 20
    th
    Century craftsmanship and design.
    The custom-built interior is designed to safely store and display your valuable collection. It boasts a furniture grade faux suede material and the medallion in the padded interior cover is a semi-precious gemstone. This case is heirloom quality and was built to last for generations. If you are looking for a special case that is as distinctive as your collection - you have found it.
    I could not find a quality, attractive and functional pen chest at an affordable price so I make my own.  Most of my cases are made from 30 to 100-year-old vintage and antique silverware storage chests. My goal is to offer some of the best cases available. I do that by controlling every step of the rebuilding process and doing all the work by hand. My standards are very high, so as a result, I offer a product of superior workmanship, unmatched quality, and value and is designed to safely store your collection.
    I have sold hundreds of these all over the world and many of my customers have returned to buy two, three, or even four of my cases. One customer has purchased seven of my creations.
    What distinguishes my cases from all the others?

    I have custom-built cases for storage and display of mechanical pencils, watches, knife collections, pocket watches, and for storage of jewelry and small parts, etc. Please let me know if you have specific needs in a storage/display case. I will research, recommend, design and custom build a chest to your specs as long as it is within my areas of expertise. Below are just a few of the feedback responses I have received. I have maintained a 100% rating for years.

    Dear Larry,
    My pen chest just arrived this evening. It's absolutely gorgeous. I'm a so pleased and wowed by your attention to detail and craftsmanship! Excellent. I shall leave you a raving review. The packing was better than I've ever seen, ever in my whole life.
    Holy smokes, you have a very, very pleased customer here. You are a true artist.
    Sincerely,
    A*****y
    Good morning Larry
    Just to say that the pen storage chest arrived yesterday and is absolutely excellent. You must have put many hours of effort into bringing it to this condition and your craftsmanship is well rewarded. It will just about cover my immediate need but I may well have to contact you in the future if the collection (hopefully!) continues to escalate.
    Many thanks and kind regards.

    Good Afternoon, Larry:
    The chest arrived today.  It is beautiful, a work of art!  It is beyond my expectations!  My father would have sat and admired every grain, and so am I.  You, sir, are not only a craftsman, but a master craftsman of the old, old school.  There are very few people like you.  This belongs in a museum and when I pass, it will be willed to a museum as an outstanding example of master restoration.  Your name as the craftsman will be permanent mounted in the chest.  I will proudly display it and when it goes on display, in a month or so when I have time to take my pens out of storage, I will send you a photo.
    Use me as a reference in any way that you want.
    Thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul!

    Dear lduanebeck,
    I left positive feedback on eBay, but I wanted to follow up directly with you to tell you that the pen case is absolutely beautiful. Just really stunning. I'll be following your auctions in the future, as I need a few more cases, and hopefully you'll be listing some that hold more pens.
    These are really terrific. And thanks very much for shipping it so quickly, and also for the free goodies inside.
