This unique pen holder is ornamented with mother of pearl Korean Turtle Ship. Also known as Geobukseon, the Turtle Ship was the first ironclad warship in the world invented and built by admiral Yi Sun-sin in 1592. Boasting unparalleled firepower and mobility, it was capable of sinking the vast fleets of the Japanese navy in the sea battles between Korea and Japan in 1592-1598. It proved a pivotal instrument for numerous victories against Japanese naval forces, which frustrated Toyotomi Hideyoshi's attempt to conquer Korea.

This pen holder brings a sublime natural beauty onto a busy desk covered with modern plastic stationary.
