Michael

Traditional pens for artists and collectors, handcrafted from Australian and exotic hardwoods.

The monogrammed solid brass core provides a beautiful and secure nib holder, perfectly weighted for any use.

A year ago I introduced my son to tabletop RPGs (Shadowdark, for those who know) and of course I had to draw some dungeons and campaign maps! I dug out my cheap plastic dip pen that I hadn't used since my days at Julian Ashton's and thought, 'I can do better.'

When we do something we love, something we care about, we want to use the best tools we can get, whether that's paint, brushes, saws, paper or pens. In this case, doing better took dozens of prototypes and a few custom-made tools, and after all that I thought 'Maybe someone else would like one of these, too.'

Now I'm proud to be able to finally offer an alternative to cheap plastic. My pens are turned and polished on the lathe and finished with a hand-stamped brass core that results in a precision weighted drawing instrument that feels unlike anything else.

Whether you're an artist, calligrapher, writer or collector of serious knick-knacks, I hope you find these as beautiful as I do.
