Beautiful Things #14: Desk Essentials

As a designer, I spend many hours at my desk. Over the years, I've discovered the essentials that make my workflow easier and elegant. Many of these tools are items I use regularly and were collected over time, others are still on my wish list! 

1970s MERA POLTIK Alarm Clock

Miles Desk Lamp from Schoolhouse Electric

Dachshund Letter Holder -- no longer available from Anthropologie, but is my favorite desk buddy. :)

Brass Pencil Sharpener

Lamy Safari Fountain Pen

Brass Midori Pen

Cedar Pointe Pencil Set (with good eraser!)

Iconic Pencase - perfect for pen and ink supplies

The Classic Pica Pole

Midori Polar Bear A5 Spiral Notebook

Brass Ruled Letter Opener for all of your snail mail

On the rare occasions that I use stapler (I'm more of a paperclip gal), I'd love to have an Ace!
