HMS Victory Pens
|
Possibly the most famous ship ever built, Nelson's flagship is the only surviving warship to have fought in the American War of Independence, French Revolutionary Wars and the Napoleonic War.
She dates back to 1759 when her keel was laid and after an unusually long active service, in 1922 she was 'saved for the nation' and put into dry-dock, where she remains to this day. She is the oldest commissioned ship in the world and has attracted millions of visitors. These unique pens have been hand crafted from wood salvaged during her restoration. |

Doctor Who's Tardis Pens
|
These unique pens have been hand crafted from wood taken from the very first mk1 Doctor Who tardis, which was created for Peter Cushing who appeared in the film 'Doctor Who and the Daleks'.
The tardis was originally constructed in 1965 at Shepperton Studios as a premiere model for the cast to emerge from on stage. This tardis was later re-built by the BBC prop department for use at Children in Need 2009 at the Leicester Space Centre. It was later sold at a charity auction in 2011, where it remained in a private collection. |

Kings Cross Station (Harry Potter) Pens
|
Kings Cross station began construction in the 1840's and was eventually opened in 1852 by the Great Northern Railway.
In 1923 the station came under new ownership of the London and North Eastern Railway, who introduced services such as the Flying Scotsman. In recent years Kings Cross station has appeared many times in the Harry Potter films as a gateway to catch the 'Hogwarts Express' at platform nine and three quarters. These unique pens have been hand crafted using original Jarrah wooden planks dating back to the 1840's. |

Whisky Barrel Pens
|
Is there a better way to combine a favourite tipple, sustainability and a fabulous unique pen?
We don't think so either, which is why we are proud to offer a range of pens made using reclaimed oak staves that were once used in the creation of some of the finest whiskys. If that wasn't enough to tempt you, each pen has retained the deep fragrance of the liquor it once contained in stave form, so as your mind wanders to some far off beach or cocktail bar, just one sniff will transport you there, just for a second (unfortunately!). |

HMS Ark Royal (R09) Pens
|
An Audacious class aircraft carrier, HMS Ark Royal (R09) was commissioned in 1955 and was the first aircraft carrier to be constructed with an angled flight deck and steam catapults, as opposed to having them added after launching. This allowed aircraft to take off and land at the same time.
These unique pens have been crafted from teak taken from her quarter deck when she was decommissioned and later broken up in the early 1980's. |

The Mary Rose (Oak set in resin) Pens
|
The Mary Rose was completed in 1512 and was a Carrack type warship of King Henry VIII's English Tudor Navy. She served in several wars against France, Scotland and Brittany but was sunk in battle in 1545 in the Solent. She was eventually raised in 1982 and put on display in Portsmouth's Historic Dockyard, where she has undergone substantial restoration.
The oak used in these unique pens was found at the wreck site and has been set in resin. |

RAF Marham Pens
|
Opened in August 1916, RAF Marham was pivotal to air defence roles during the First and Second World Wars and has been the base to many bomber squadrons over the years. Now though, in more peaceable times, it is home to the Lightning F35 aircraft.
Pine floor joists were salvaged following renovations in 2019 and we are very proud to be able to offer a very limited amount of unique pens made using this wood, which are steeped in such history. |

Wine cask Pens
|
Wine is fine, but only in moderation! If you can't be moderate, or you're at work, what better way to compromise than with a pen which reminds you of your favourite drink?
These unique pens are perfect for any wine lover and smell fantastic. Not quite as pungent as the whisky pens, but enough to make your mouth water. |
