Tom's Studio, a small British pen maker based in Frome, Somerset, set out to do something about that — and The Wren is the result. A beautifully made, infinitely refillable everyday writing pen crafted from anodised aluminium, designed to last a lifetime and to make the idea of throwing away a pen feel completely unnecessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Wren uses a Japanese-made fibre tip that writes with a feel somewhere between a rollerball and a fine liner — smooth, consistent, and free from the blobbing or line irregularity that plagues many disposable pens. Because there is no ball laying the ink on the page, the line is clean and even, with a subtle variation available by adjusting pressure. The tip is rated to write for 344 metres on a single reservoir fill — roughly the equivalent of 50 A4 pages of handwriting — and when it eventually wears down, replacement tips are available separately, so the pen itself need never be discarded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFilling is simple. Unscrew the barrel, remove the cotton core reservoir, dip it in ink, and capillary action draws the ink in. The Wren is compatible with nearly all dye-based fountain pen inks — a huge range of colours and brands — giving you complete freedom over your writing experience. Tom's own Fibre Tip Ink is the recommended starting point, and a 3ml sample is included with every pen. Inks containing shimmer particles or acrylic and shellac binders should be avoided as these can clog the tip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe body is made from anodised aluminium — lightweight at just 20g, but with enough substance to feel considered and well made in the hand. The barrel features micro-grooves, tiny ridges built into the design that enhance grip without resorting to rubber or plastic inserts. At 80mm capped and 120mm posted, it is a compact pen that sits comfortably in a pocket or bag and comes into its own when the cap is posted on the end during use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWe stock The Wren in Black, Sage, Iris, Raspberry, Midnight, Ivy, and Lilac.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCapped length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80mm \u003cstrong\u003ePosted length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 120mm \u003cstrong\u003eBarrel diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13mm \u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20g \u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Anodised aluminium \u003cstrong\u003eMade in:\u003c\/strong\u003e UK \u003cstrong\u003eTip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japanese-made fibre tip, 0.3–0.5mm depending on pressure\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat ink can I use in The Wren?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Wren works with almost any dye-based fountain pen ink, giving you access to a vast range of colours from brands including Diamine, Pilot Iroshizuku, Lamy, and many others. Tom's own Fibre Tip Ink is the recommended option and a sample is included with every pen. Avoid inks containing shimmer or iridescent particles, and avoid inks with acrylic or shellac binders such as calligraphy inks, as these can clog the reservoir and tip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I refill The Wren?\u003c\/strong\u003e Unscrew the top section of the barrel to reveal the cotton core reservoir.

When it eventually wears down, replacement tips are available in packs of three.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs The Wren a good gift?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — it is one of those products that feels genuinely special to receive.

The Wren is designed to be refilled indefinitely with any compatible fountain pen ink, the tip can be replaced when it wears out, and the aluminium body is built to last a lifetime. It is a fundamentally different proposition — a tool you keep rather than one you throw away.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tom's Studio","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":55459103834487,"sku":"PRO-PEN-WRE-BLA-BLA","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sage","offer_id":55459104620919,"sku":"PRO-PEN-WRE-SAG-SAG","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Iris","offer_id":55832015077751,"sku":"PRO-PEN-WRE-IRI-IRI","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Raspberry","offer_id":56348762997111,"sku":"PRO-Pen-WRE-RAS-RAS","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Midnight","offer_id":56348799828343,"sku":"PRO-PEN-WRE-MID-MID","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ivy","offer_id":56348828434807,"sku":"PRO-PEN-WRE-IVY-IVY","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Lilac","offer_id":56940430098807,"sku":"PRO-PEN-WRE-LIL-LIL","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0076\/2288\/5428\/files\/53668cbdf09647946dfb9c3ede825acbdb6364da6ac75cde70702087e6ae9abe.jpg?v=1739201777"},{"product_id":"festina-classicals-black-fountain-pen","title":"Festina Classicals Black Fountain Pen","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Festina Pen in black with a feather is a true work of art.

Tom watched his wife working with a mass-produced plastic calligraphy pen and felt it simply wasn't good enough for the quality of her work. He made her a better one. She loved it, he posted a photograph, and orders started arriving. Several years later, Tom's Studio is one of the most talked-about small pen makers in the world — and the Studio Pocket Fountain Pen 2.0 is perhaps the clearest expression of everything the brand stands for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eMachined from anodised aluminium and hand-assembled in Tom's studio in Frome, Somerset, the Studio Pocket is a genuine pocket fountain pen in the finest sense — compact enough to carry everywhere, but designed to write like a full-sized pen the moment the cap is posted. At 100mm capped it slips easily into a shirt pocket, jacket pocket, or small bag. Posted, it extends to 165mm — considerably longer than most pocket pens on the market — giving a well-balanced, comfortable writing experience that belies its diminutive closed length. The lightweight aluminium construction means that even with the cap posted, the pen remains nicely balanced rather than becoming back-heavy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe grip section is a generous 50mm long, with fine micro-grooves that enhance grip without using rubber or plastic inserts. The octagonal profile of the cap prevents the pen rolling off a desk — a small detail that earns its place immediately. The nib is a gold-plated stainless steel medium, tipped with iridium for durability, and writes with a smooth, consistent line with a little variation available under pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eOne of the most thoughtful aspects of the Studio Pocket is its approach to filling and sustainability. The pen uses standard international short cartridges — a black ink cartridge is included — but Tom also includes an ink syringe with every pen, allowing you to refill the cartridge directly from any bottle of fountain pen ink rather than discarding it. The pen can also be used as an eyedropper by filling the barrel directly with ink, significantly increasing ink capacity. Calligraphy-specific inks with acrylic or shellac binders should be avoided as these can clog the pen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe nib unit is interchangeable, screwing in and out easily, meaning the pen can be adapted to a range of different nib styles as your needs and interests develop — including fine, semi-flex, cursive italic, and architect grinds available separately from Tom's Studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWe stock the Studio Pocket Fountain Pen 2.0 in Iris, Sage, Blush, and Black, all fitted with a medium nib as standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCapped length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100mm \u003cstrong\u003ePosted length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 165mm \u003cstrong\u003eBarrel diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14mm \u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25g \u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Anodised aluminium \u003cstrong\u003eNib:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gold-plated stainless steel, medium, iridium-tipped \u003cstrong\u003eFilling system:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard international short cartridge, converter, or eyedropper \u003cstrong\u003eMade in:\u003c\/strong\u003e UK\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat ink can I use in the Studio Pocket?\u003c\/strong\u003e It works with all standard fountain pen inks. A black ink cartridge is included, and the pen comes with a syringe to refill cartridges from any ink bottle — compatible with the vast range of fountain pen inks available from brands including Diamine, Lamy, Pilot, and Tom's Studio's own range. Avoid calligraphy-specific inks containing acrylic or shellac binders as these can clog the nib and feed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use bottled ink without a converter?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — the Studio Pocket can be used as an eyedropper pen by filling the barrel directly with ink. This significantly increases ink capacity. Tom recommends greasing the barrel threads before doing this to prevent leaks — a short guide is available on the Tom's Studio website.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the nibs interchangeable?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The nib unit unscrews easily from the barrel, making it straightforward to swap between different nib styles. Tom's Studio offers a range of additional nibs including fine, extra fine, semi-flex, cursive italic, and architect grinds, all compatible with the Studio Pocket 2.0. Note that Tom's Studio nibs are only compatible with Tom's Studio pens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it suitable for left-handed writers?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
