Partnership with The Supreme Court Historical Society
Quite literally our most Supreme project to date, we are deeply honored to announce our partnership with the Supreme Court Historical Society. The Society is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) membership organization dedicated to preserving and collecting the history of the Supreme Court of the United States. Their mission includes increasing public awareness of the Court's contributions to our nation's rich constitutional heritage and acquiring knowledge covering the history of the entire Judicial Branch
In support of this esteemed mission, we had the privilege of collaborating on a special project - crafting 150 Special Edition Ambassador Writing Instruments. These exquisite pens were made using wood from an oak tree that stood on the grounds of the Supreme Court for an impressive 110 years.
To be trusted with wood that has so much history is a true honor. This wood, which once stood as an Oak tree on the grounds of the most famous court in our country for over a century has seen some of our nations most historic court rulings:
Brown v. Board of Education (1954): This landmark case marked a critical turning point in the civil rights movement. The Supreme Court unanimously ruled that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional, overturning the "separate but equal"
Roe v. Wade (1973): This case established a woman's right to abortion as constitutionally protected under the right to privacy. The decision remains one of the most debated and controversial cases in Supreme Court history and has had a profound impact on reproductive rights and public policy.
Miranda v. Arizona (1966): This landmark case established the Miranda warnings, requiring law enforcement to inform suspects of their rights before custodial interrogations. The decision safeguards individuals' Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination and has become a fundamental aspect of criminal procedure.
We were able to repurpose this wood, laden with history, into luxury writing instruments exclusively for the Supreme Court Historical Society. With the wood being over a century old, it has so much character, resulting in pens that not only embody the spirit of the Supreme Court but also serve as treasured works of art
Each one bears the Seal of the Supreme Court Historical Society on the top. Our most Supreme project to date!
