How does it work?
We use a state of the art laser engraving machine which gently etches away the top layer of the pen to reveal the base metal underneath.
The colour of engraving depends on the base metal underneath. Lacquered pens tend to engrave with a brass finish, whilst chrome pens with a subtle two tone effect (check preview on every product page). We also offer 3 font choices;
What can I engrave?
We can engrave any letter, number or character that can entered from a standard computer keyboard, in any language. This includes English, Arabic, Hebrew, Greek, Cyrillic etc.
We can engrave UTF8 symbols. Either choose from our list or copy and paste your own.
Each pen has a limit to the amount of characters we can engrave due to its size and curvature. Look out for the character limit on each product page. If you cant quite fit your message with the allowable characters, please call us and we will see what we can do.

Barrel or cap end – see engrave preview on the product page

Smooth writer, albeit a bit dry for my taste, as I prefer very wet writing pens. It is excellent for correspondence, though and has very crisp lines. When I need something to be especially neat, this is my go to.

Does exactly as it should. Had used a medium nib before but the flow was too heavy for my handwriting. This is perfect
