Abstract: A writing utensil stand including a base having a planar lower side configured to be supported on a horizontal surface such as a table or countertop. The writing utensil stand includes a plurality of cylindrical bores which are disposed on an upper side of the device, wherein each bore includes an opening that is sized to receive a writing instrument, such as a pen or pencil, therethrough. At least one viewing aperture is disposed on the base and extends from a front side of the base through a rear side thereof. At least one of the bores extends through the viewing aperture and terminates at the lower side of the base, such that the viewing aperture allows individuals to observe a lower portion of the writing instrument for proper identification when stored.
