It's actually a vase so I threw a flower in for good measure. It is made of glossy white rubber and does a great job of protecting 35 pens in individual slots. They are a bit deep so I had to stuff some scrap paper in the bottom of each to keep the pens at the proper height for snatching. Search over; I'm thrilled!
