How to choose a pen as a gift?

A pen is one of the most popular gift options that carry a neutral, businesslike or friendly message. This accessory is often presented to people who are treated with respect and esteem. Consider what to consider when presenting a pen as a gift so that this gift does not look trivial and boring.

At first glance, the pen, presented as a gift, may seem like a rather primitive and ordinary decision. In order for a souvenir not to make such an impression, it must meet the following criteria, such as:

• individuality;
• respectability;
• originality;
• high quality.

The individuality of such a gift may lie in certain features that distinguish it from similar accessories. So, to emphasize the uniqueness of this souvenir, you can use certain inscriptions, symbols, patterns. These can be branded (brand) pens with the name of the recipient of the gift, with the image of his zodiac sign or initials, with a partial wish. Typically, such drawings and inscriptions are applied to the body of the product using engraving.

Respectability of such a souvenir in most cases ensures the popularity of the manufacturer. The market leader in these accessories is the well-known brand Parker. Despite the fact that this manufacturer has a range of budget options in the range, you should not buy a pen as a gift, which costs less than 1,500 rubles.

The originality of souvenir pens usually depends on their design. Planning to present to the hero of the occasion, really, an original gift, you should pay attention to the beautiful pens with an unusual design. The pens look very elegant, which are usually used not so much for writing as for emphasizing the special status of the owner. The feather of this accessory can be steel and even gold.

The pen, intended for donation, must be of high quality. This also applies to the strength of this accessory, and how well it performs its basic function. For this reason, it is important to check in advance how well this product writes, how convenient and pleasant it is to use it.

This souvenir is most often presented to colleagues, managers, business partners, doctors, teachers, writers, representatives of creative professions. As well as original and unusual pens are often presented as a gift to distant relatives and new interesting friends.

As part of a business relationship, it is not recommended to give business partners pens with the logo of your company. Such souvenir accessories can only be exchanged as a sign of respect for each other.

To select and present a truly high-quality accessory that deserves attention, you should consider pens with manufacturer's warranty. Major brands (in particular, the said company Parker) provide similar guarantees for their products. Usually the warranty period for the product is at least two years.

But you should also pay attention to the packaging of the product. Reputable brands necessarily accompany their products with branded cases with strong latches or locks.

You should not bypass the country of origin. As you know, many people are more respected by European states than Asian countries. If the person to whom such a gift is intended differs in scrupulousness in this matter, it is better to give preference to handles made in the UK, Germany, Italy or France.

Even very cool ballpoint pens with a plastic case are significantly inferior to products whose case is made of metal. It is known that plastic is considered the most non-durable material, it breaks easily, and can be cracked under strong pressure. Handles with metal cases serve much longer, and their appearance does not change with time. They do not fade, do not lose their presentability. In addition, such a handle is very difficult to break or damage. Their only, but insignificant disadvantage is a more tangible weight compared to plastic products.

Quite an interesting and non-trivial idea for a gift can be a pen with a wooden case. Such souvenirs are best given to young people - schoolchildren or students.

Connoisseurs of non-standard solutions will appreciate the multifunctional handle, equipped, for example, with a thermometer or barometer. Another successful gift idea is a convenient and practical pen equipped with a pedometer. Such a gift will certainly appeal to people who are interested in sports and prefer a healthy lifestyle.

If it seems to the donor that the pen purchased as a gift does not look very impressive, it can always be supplemented with accessory accessories. For example, to this main gift in addition, you can purchase items such as:

• stand under the organizer;
• calculator;
• diary;
• the calendar;
• notebook.

People who appreciate good literature can be presented with a pen an interesting book. And, for example, those who are interested in esoterics, will appreciate the collection of horoscopes for every day.

At the final stage, you should choose the original packaging or a stylish gift bag.
