The engraved display box is the perfect addition to the beautiful pen I purchased for my wife. She loves them.
The Bethlehem Olivewood Model C Ballpoint Click pen was a wedding anniversary gift for my wife. She loves it. Beautiful pen. The hardest thing was deciding which wood to choose because they all looked good. I also bought the presentation box which really is elegant. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique and expertly crafted gift.
No complaints! Love that I am from NC and live at or near Wilmington to help preserve the heritage of our ship.
I got this as a present for my amazing wife! She fell in love with it right away! She appreciated the story of the wood and also the company story. It is her most favorite pen and she uses it to make notes in her bible. Thank you!!
The bolt-action pen I purchased from the 1937 series is wonderful to use. It has the right weight, feel and quality which all result in an excellent performing pen. I use the pen with a Parker .55 Gel refill which works very well. I highly recommend this pen. The craftsmanship is superb, and I love the aesthetics and the important historical connection.
Updated review. The cap was stuck on the grip, making the pen unusable. I contacted support immediately and thought they didn’t reply. They actually replied immediately and the response was in my junk folder. I haven’t tried the fix yet, but it is definitely an issue that the cap doesnt come off easily. The quality is good and I like the pen.
It is a great privilege to purchase corporate gifts handmade here in America. As a fund manager who deals with sophisticated and accredited investors who value quality and value of their investments, receiving a gift of equal standing is hard to come by. Allegory products have done just that. Supporting American-made products has been a hallmark of my company, and we are thrilled to gift each of our investors with a personalized Dickinson Journal and a Model R Rollerball Pen. My clients appreciate the attention to detail, fine quality, and sophisticated appeal of Allegory products.
I look forward to many more gifts to my investors, provided by such a great company focused on making American Procts Great Again!
Love this wallet. Bought my original off of their Kickstarter project. Was still using my original after years of use it was going strong. It just wasn't strong enough to survive a new puppy. Great product and great company.
An absolutely fantastic product. The craftsmanship is top-notch with a wonderful sensory experience when using the folio. The customer service was excellent when I had a question regarding the shipping. I'm looking forward to many years of use, and would highly recommend Allegory products.
Writes very well, good balance with cap on end the history.
My third product from Allegory, and it’s just great ‼️
Very impressed with quick and personal service. Beautiful and quality leather portfolio made in America!!! Very thankful for your company and your pride in your work.
I purchased this for my husband for Valentine’s Day. He loves it! It is high quality, holds everything he needs it to, including his laptop, and it looks great.
It is heavy when full, so I think it would be great if a handle was added to the spine for easy carrying.
I am in a line of work where I hand-write notes all day, and I wanted something beautiful to write with that would feel good in my hand -- the Holden is very much both! The artistry is so lovely -- even when it is just sitting on my desk it is a pleasure! And it has a wonderful feel and just-the-right-amount of weight to it -- it really feels like it was made for my hand. The only "downside" is I never want to put it down! :) Thankfully, I also bought an Allegory Macana Mailbag which I take with me nearly everywhere, so I can almost always have my Holden with me.
I take my time with purchases like this. I research, read reviews, post questions online, ask questions of the maker (MANY thanks to Jess for her patience with me!) and thoroughly consider everything. There is nothing else quite like the Macana Mailbag out there! The craftsmanship is top quality, both in function (the structural elements are very well thought out and sturdily built) and form (the design is just beautiful -- a wearable work of art!). The external and internal organization are just the right amount to be useful/functional, without getting in the way or committing me to a limited way of doing things. (A little tip: I ordered a few of their Aspen Journal Storage Mods to add some flexible internal organization -- I keep one in my Macana regularly, and have a second one that I toss in for when I need some additional accoutrements.) I also love the strap closure system -- it is wonderfully functional/effective, with a fun, rugged aesthetic (and it is SO much better than relying on magnets, which inevitably open when you don't want them to). Overall, my Macana Mailbag feels like something I could wear adventuring into some hidden archeological ruin a la Indian Jones as well as into the city and a formal business meeting. I am excited to use this bag for the rest of my life. :)
I was looking for custom gift and came upon this site. The quality of the work was excellent. Would reconsider using them in the future!
I really like the item, but wanted to love it like I do almost everything else I've bought from Allegory. The feel is good, but it's a little larger than I was expecting. I expected it to be just a little larger than an 8.5x11 piece of paper but it is significantly larger than that. Everything works great, it has a good patina and feel to the leather that I know from experience will get better as it ages. I'm just *almost* completely satisfied. But will definitely continue to purchase their products, as I have since the beginning.
Loving this custom piece, fits my 2024 MacBook Pro and my iPad Air plus the TWO pen holders in front… I want one in every color!
I don’t write reviews, ever, but Allegory deserves a praise. I ordered this product on a Saturday expecting it to be delivered the following week since the items are handcrafted which they claim would take about 2-3 business days. About 5 days passed with no shipping updates, so I contacted support and received a message from Co-Founder Jessica in which she explained that there had been unexpected absences and the product will be finished and shipped with upgraded shipping. The product itself is amazing. The leather has a great look and feel. It was however a bit bigger than expected. Regardless this is an amazing product made by amazing people.
I got the Bethlehem Olivewood pencil. The color and pattern of the grain is so nice. I just need to write lighter as I've used a .9 lead for years. :)
This is the 2nd pen I've ordered from here for my partner and they are just great, great quality and great customer service thankyou
My daughter Titilayo just received her degree in nurse practitioner and I thought this Oallegory pen is a great gift for her practice! Titilayo absolutely loves her Oallegory Pen. She can’t wait to start her new job and place it on her desk!
I bought one several years ago. Absolutely loved it. I can no longer find it. It's heartbreaking. I will definitely be buying another one.
If anybody is on the fence wrestling with the idea to buy one of these. I highly recommend it.
Thanks for making such a beautiful case. This one was a gift, but after seeing it I think I’m going to need one for myself!
