A hooded cobra rises from a ring of coiled scales to keep pens and pencils upright.
Some pen holders just hold pens. This one has a cobra rearing up out of the cup, hood flared, head tipped forward as if it is watching your desk. The body coils downward in a stack of textured rings, each one carrying the fine scale detail you would expect from a real snake, not a smooth toy version.
It is 3D printed in PLA+, which is the material we reach for whenever a design lives or dies on crisp detail. The scale texture on the coils and the taper of the hood both come out sharp, and the finish is smooth enough to handle every day without picking up marks.
Stand your pens, pencils, and even a small pair of scissors inside the coils and the cobra holds them all upright and within reach. It is a proper conversation starter on a work desk, a gaming setup, or a bookshelf, and it makes a memorable gift for anyone who loves reptiles, sculpture, or things that look nothing like a boring plastic cup.
Printed to order in Australia, ready in a couple of days. The reference piece is a soft turquoise, and we also print it in emerald green, black, or bronze if you want the cobra to match your space.
