This pen holder is built from a real McLaren rear wheel nut. It’s the same part the team uses to lock a wheel onto their race cars. Nothing decorative or replica here — this is real Formula One hardware.

Each nut has its own wear and markings from time on the track. McLaren runs gold on one side of the car and red on the other so the crew can identify them fast. This one is the gold version.

The piece is about four inches across and three inches tall. It sits well on a desk and has the weight and feel you would expect from race-used metal. B.A.D re-imagined it to be used as a pen holder, which puts it back to work in a simple, practical way.

These nuts are not easy to find. They make a solid gift for anyone who follows Formula One or collects McLaren gear.
