Lo o k b o o k

you

i ns p i r e

u s .

You get our engines revved, get us out of bed in the morning, and get our party started.

You make us want to go the extra mile and seek out the truly extraordinary.

At Clove & Twine, we believe in your company. We believe in it so much that we would never want to see your brand on an unworthy tchotchke. Gifts that you give to your employees, partners, clients or otherwise should represent the caliber of your business. We hand pick remarkable items that are crafted by the best in the industry to be branded with your logo. You deserve no less than the very best.

WHY REMARKABLE? For the same reason why everything is more beautiful when bathed in sunlight. Nobody looks good in fluorescents. Cheap junky gifts branded with your logo is like making a conscious decision to simply not look as good as possible. It’s time to get some better lighting.

The products on our website are high-quality, unique, and crafted with care. They are all completely remarkable. This means that when someone sees a leather notebook or laptop bag branded with your logo, they’ll say, “Wow, great [insert item here]! Where did you get that?” They will remark upon it, remember it, and associate that kind of quality with your business.

Remarkable things are more valuable. They are worn and used with pride. They are treasured. And most importantly they are synonymous with your values.

WELCOME TO CLOVE & TWINE. We have created a fresh new idea for corporate gifting, that you inspired us to build.

You wanted a better option, and now you’ve found it.

Thank you for rejecting the status quo and joining us.

Ever reveling in the remarkable, Team C&T

You’ve created beautiful things to hold just about everything. Why was tackling this market important to you?

Roy: “We’ve always believed in forming meaningful connections with the things around us, like tools, clothing, bags, materials. We searched for a balance between function and utility, aesthetics and refinement. We were constantly seeing beautiful bags that lacked functionality, or highly functional bags that lacked beauty.

We decided to combine the two."

Our team is so enthusiastic about how and why we do everything, and they really love to learn.

wo r k e s s e n t i a l s These elegantly crafted Tree Ring Pens came from the creativity of Dave Wager, a trained forest ecologist. Understanding that certain trees needed to be cleared to help larger ones continue to grow, he saw an opportunity when measuring the rings of these smaller trees.

He noticed their beauty and began creating these stunning pens.

Dave’s Tree Ring Pens show a long and rich history through wood that has seen thousands of sunrises and sunsets. Because each pen is unique, it turns a simple item into a gift that will be used and treasured.
