Wren - Take Flight & Write

A beautiful and infinitely refillable writing pen, equipped with a Japanese-made writing tip. We're on a mission to make choosing refillable options easier, so you can now buy two (or more!) Wren pens and save 10%

Every year, millions of disposable pens are thrown-away, adding to the growing environmental waste. Similar to printer ink cartridges, pen companies design their products for short-term use, pushing you to repeatedly buy new pens or refills. It's profitable for them, but disastrous for the planet – and limits your creative freedom.

As a product designer and craftsman who loves writing, I became frustrated with the waste created by disposable pens. They would pile up in drawers, waiting for a specific refill, or worse, end up in the bin despite being perfectly usable – if only they had ink.

After years of designing and handcrafting calligraphy and fountain pens for creatives worldwide, I decided it was time to tackle one of the biggest culprits: the everyday writing pen. The result? The Wren – a pen designed not only to write beautifully but also to last a lifetime, helping to reduce the mountains of waste created by disposable pens.

Included in the box:

  • The Wren in your choice of colour
  • Japanese-made Writing Tip*
  • 3ml Midnight Ink sample
  • Ink Reservoir

*0.3–0.5 depending on pressure

Specifications:

  • Length capped – 80mm
  • Posted (cap on the end of the pen) – 120mm
  • Weight – 20g

Full FAQs and a video guide to getting started with your Wren can be found here.

What ink can I use?

The Wren is compatible with all but the most experimental fountain pen inks (think shimmer + iridescent). We offer a beautiful range of ink for fountain pens, which are perfect for the Wren and can be found here.

Note: Calligraphy Ink has an acrylic binder which will block the pen and is not suitable for use with the Wren.

Some ink colours can concentrate in the tip, so you may experience a lighter colour after a line or two. This is completely normal and looks quite nice!

How do I store the reservoir and tips?
You can store reservoirs and tips, and change to a different colour using spare reservoirs and my reservoir storage containers.

How long will the tips/ink last?
You can expect the high-quality, Japanese-made tip to last for months of use. We tested a single ink fill in the Wren on a plotter – a device used for precision drawing – and it wrote consistently for 344 metres. That's the equivalent of 50 A4 pages of handwriting!

When the tip eventually dulls, you can find packs of three replacement tips here.

Anything else I should know?
Yes! I’ve designed the pen to include ‘micro-grooves’, tiny ridges that enhance grip without using plastics. Please note: the black and midnight colourways do not feature these micro-grooves, as they have a grippy matte finish.

We aim to process your order within 1-3 working days. Please note that this increases to 1-4 working days for orders that include any personalisation, such as engraving.

My perfect pen

I've always liked fountain ink but wasn't a huge fan of regular fountain pens (drying out, replacing ink, skipping/scratchy nibs, etc.) so i kept returning to normal pens. My absolute favorites (Paper Mate Liquid Flair iykyk) were discontinued like a decade ago so I've been hoarding while trying to find alternatives (Finito, Optimus, Pilot Razor, the list is infinite). Then I saw an ad and was like...ain't no way this is real/that good. Then I watched a review by Mark Your Pages on YT and decided, fine. I've tried everything else so I may as well try this. THIS pen is everything I've been looking for. It was so easy to fill, I'm not paranoid about it drying out, it writes sooooooo smooth, and the weight just feels nice. Bonus, the company seems like it's a run by some very lovely people (packaging, tea, considerate pricing for replacement parts)! My new problem is wanting to immediately buy another.

I LOVE my Wren!

Having just received my hugely anticipated package from Tom’s Studio - I am so delighted with the goodies. The Wren Pen is an absolute delight! I love, love love it! It writes beautifully and feels so lovely in the hand! I just want an excuse to use it now on anything! If I could I would love to write this using the pen!! The inks are gorgeous and I love the fact that I can change colours as my mood suits. I am seriously considering getting a second pen and will definitely use this for presents for family and the like! Love it!

Sweet mini pen

That expands to a full size one. Smooth nib that glides across paper. Lovely ability to refill without waste.
