The Valhalla Collection is the ninth in the David Oscarson™ series of Limited Edition writing instruments. 

From the Bronze Age to medieval times, Viking mythology was the religion of Scandinavia. Today, legends of the Vikings are present in all cultures as a result of their ability to travel and plunder, leaving their marks across the face of Europe and the known world. Known for their ‘longships’ and crude weaponry, the Vikings also developed a crude runic alphabet, seen chiseled into huge granite rocks, called rune stones; they can be seen across most of modern-day Europe.

Valhalla (Valhöll) literally translated means ‘Hall of the Slain” and is in essence a Viking heaven, or ‘Otherworld’ into which Viking warriors pass upon leaving this life. It is a great structure – much like a Roman Coliseum – with 640 doorways, through each of which 960 champions can march shoulder to shoulder. Its rafters are spear shafts and its tiles are shields of gold. Here, fallen champions spend all day gaming and fighting one another in battle. At the end of the day, the dead and wounded are all healed, so they can spend the night feasting on the flesh of a boar whose flesh never diminishes and drinking from the udders of a magic goat.

In Valhalla, three Viking gods prevail: the Nordic Trinity, Odin, Thor and Frey.

Odin, ‘God of the Slain’ and ‘All-Father’ lives throughout all ages ruling his kingdom absolutely, governing all things great and small. He fashioned Heaven and Earth and is also credited for creating Man and giving him an immortal spirit ‘which shall never perish though the body crumble to dust or burn to ashes’. Odin is also the patron god of poetry and one of his poems slithers in the form of a serpent in high relief on the cap of the Valhalla Collection. Literally translated from runic script, the poem reads ‘he who would read the sacred runes is wise to waste no words’. Odin’s name is the basis for our modern day Wednesday (Odinsdag). 

Thor is of course the God of Thunder. He is the guardian of the world – both of gods and men. His mighty hammer Mjöllnir is a short-handled weapon (the dwarf who forged it was interrupted in his work by a gnat stinging him on the eyelid). Named after lightning, or literally ‘ a thunderbolt’ it can be swung or thrown, and will always return to his hand like a boomerang. It is with this weapon that Thor maintains the stability of the world and keeps forces of chaos in check. Thor’s name is the basis for our modern day Thursday (Thorsdag).

  Frey is the god of fertility. He is the noblest of gods. He controls the rain and sunshine and therefore the natural increase of the earth and it is good to call upon him for fruitful seasons and for peace; he also controls the good fortunes of men. Frey was the paramount god of the Swedes and revered as the divine ancestor of their kings. Frey is said to have built the great temple at Uppsala (just north of Stockholm) when he made it his chief seat and the Swedes made sacrifices to him at weddings: ‘He bestows peace and pleasure on mortals’. In Norse mythology, Frey is remembered as a symbol of the divine marriage between the sky and the earth that produces Spring. (His twin sister, Freyja, is the most excellent of the goddesses and was the mistress of Odin for a time. Her name is the basis for our modern-day Friday.)

In contrast to the crude art of the Viking era, the Valhalla Collection is portrayed in the technical expertise of Guilloché engraving and the artistic mastery of Hard Enamel. The Collection incorporates three levels of Guilloché and three colors of translucent and opaque hard enamel on each Collection piece.

The Medieval design of this Limited Edition requires three separate stages of engraving. The entire body of the pen is first cut down to the level of the background, leaving the outlines of the rune stone and longship in high relief. The wave and granite patterns are then engraved onto the surface of the body of the pen. The third stage of engraving applies the smaller serpent motif to the surface of the granite; the larger serpent remaining raised in high relief.

Each David Oscarson Writing Instrument is available as a Fountain Pen in Fine, Medium, or Broad. It is also available as a Rollerball Pen or can be purchased as a convertible set to switch between the two writing modes.

This special edition of 8 pieces is in opaque black and translucent white and mint green.

Compact, Versatile, and No Rust So Far
Color: Black, Size: 7.9" x 3.7" x 6.2", Color: Black, Size: 7.9" x 3.7" x 6.2"
I looked around quite a bit before buying this because a lot of sellers offer the same or very similar design. I even saw versions with a dedicated spot for a Scrub Daddy, but I didn’t feel like paying extra for that. I went with this one hoping it would still work for my setup, and it absolutely does. I’m limited on counter space, and this doesn’t take up much room at all. The removable brush holder cup is a big plus, I removed it and use that space for my Sponge Daddy, which fits perfectly. It also fits my hand soap and dish soap bottles without any issues, and I use the brush holder section to hold clean utensils. I’ve been using this for almost two months now and wash dishes constantly, so there’s pretty much always some water dripping from the sponge while it dries. So far, there’s been no rusting and no color chipping, which was something I was concerned about. Overall, it works perfectly for my needs and feels well made.

Design Is Great. Material Was A Very Poor Choice.
Color: Black, Size: 7.9" x 3.7" x 6.2"
The gauge of the wire used is pretty thin. There is no real weight to this item. It does do exactly what I need it to do as it allows me to dry my dish cleaning brushes and my Dawn Puff brush in an organized manner. The taller basket is nice especially for my long handled brushes. It would actually be nice if there was a second basket since I have more handled brushes than anything else. I am also really happy that I went with this design where the drain pan is the entire length rather than a little spout where all the drainage is focused. The full length lines up better to usage of each individual brush. Due to its materials, I don't have much confidence in this being around long. So far, the black coating has held up and no r*sting (do not want to jinx myself) has occurred, but if and when it does, I fully expect the metal to fold like a house of cards. The design is actually great. The materials are its Achielles' Heel.

Great quality
Color: Black, Size: 7.9" x 3.7" x 6.2"
Great quality and super sleek to set up on the counter behind the sink. Got it for my mom as she always put her sponge in the sink and dishes ended up on top and you had to dig for the sponge. She has used this everyday since! It drains just like it states and doesn't keep water. Love how this saves the life of the sponges and space in the area.

Great sink organizer!
Good quality storage/organizer for the kitchen sink. It’s stable and can hold an assortment of dish cleaning products close to the sink. It has a plastic dish underneath to collect drip-off water. This is exactly what I needed to organize!

Great kitchen organizer
I love this handy kitchen sink organizer! I like things to be neat and tidy. This little product does the trick! It holds my dish liquid, hand soap, brushes, disposal cover and my sponges. The size is perfect and it looks great next to my sink. The organizer is made of metal and is built very well. It even has a drip pan. No more stuff all around the sink. This keeps it all organized so well. Love it!
