An elegant “blob” of glass is a sophisticated way to arrange your pens, pencils and ruler. The indentations in the molten, glossy glass were specifically molded for this purpose, while the solid weight of the glass naturally acts as a paperweight. Available in multiple colors and shapes.

This desk organizer and paperweight was inspired by the left-over “blob” materials from the glass blowing process. Its organic shape and indentations hold an array of office supplies such as pens, pencils, and rulers, while the mass of the glass suffices as a natural paperweight.
