Cross is likely one of the first brands to come to mind when thinking about high-end pens and pencils. That's because they've been around for more than 150 years. They were also the first American company to make a quality-writing instrument. All of that history and heritage is reflected in this "Best Of" choice. The Classic Century design is traditional, yet striking: smooth and sleek. The 18K gold adds a beauty and charm that only gold can provide. Can a golden pencil lead to golden ideas? You tell ...
