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.

Good Tissot Watch
Color: Grey
Arrived on time, in its original box, include a 2 year international warranty, into the box include a book with the Tissot brand history in Switzerland. Algo a second book with a whole catalog of Tissot watches men and women. The watch looks better when you put in on your wrist. The “naval” blue really gives the clock a classy look. The stainless steel workmanship is really good, the metal is bright and perfectly polished. The metal wristband quality is very good, did not have any problem to adjust the size , I went to my preferred clock workshop for this job, they extracted a few pieces of the band to fit to my small wrist size. Have to get used to the butterfly latch, but after a few days, now I learned to open and close it without any effort. The clock it’s very accurate, I’ve been using my Tissot for near a month and it just increased a few seconds per week. I do the setup and check accuracy with my pc clock. In short, It”s a good value watch, nice, good looking, accurate.

Class and elegance
Color: Gold
I absolutely love this watch! My grandson also loved mine so I bought him one for Christmas. This is the 4th Citizen watch I have purchased. 2 are ecodrive and 2 are battery powered. I have to say I do like the battery powered watches better for their weight, lots lighter on your wrist than the ecodrive I regularly used to wear. This watch has taken a beating, as it seems like I'm always hitting the face on something, and has performed beautifully. I figured that I would've replaced the crystal by now but I haven't had to. My grandson admired and wanted mine, (I can't part with it because it has special meaning) so I bought him the identical model. I have worn mine in water, extreme cold, and out to dinner. It looks and performs beautifully. This watch is classy, elegant and beautiful and it's not a giant timepiece although you may have to take it to your local jeweler for band sizing. There's videos on u tube but I don't recommend trying that for taking links out. I say beautiful because as a woman wearing this watch it's not overwhelming and screaming look at me I'm wearing a man's watch. However this watch is handsome looking on men, my husband and grandson lol. The band is smooth, doesn't kink or pinch my wrist and when fitted properly it doesn't end up face down or sliding over and staying over on the outside of my wrist. Only drawback for me is I'm not used to the day dial and sometimes when setting the time bc some months are shorter I tend to be a day ahead, easy fix. I've gotten lots of compliments on this watch and would definitely buy it again

5-Star Review: Sleek, Reliable, and Worth Every Penny!
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
I recently purchased this Citizen watch, and I'm thoroughly impressed! The design is sleek and modern, perfect for both casual and formal occasions. The Eco-Drive technology is a game-changer-no battery changes needed, just sunlight or indoor light to keep it running. The build quality feels premium, and the stainless steel band is comfortable yet durable. It keeps time accurately, and the dial is easy to read. For the price, this watch offers exceptional value and style. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, eco-friendly timepiece!
