Wonderful service-thank you so much.Posted by anthony Vaughan, United Kingdom (5/5) 05-05-2026
I have long been a customer of the Writing Desk and have entrusted to them the repairs of a rather beautiful vintage Parker vacumatic and my Montblanc M149.I was impressed and very happy with the results, both pens are now again excellent to work with and a pleasure to own. Add to this that I find Martin and Anna to be friendly, patient and diligent folk and you can easily see why I'm a 'regular'.Posted by Roger Eno, United Kingdom (5/5) 30-04-2026
This is marvellously skilled work. I sent two worn-down, beaten-up nibs, and back came two beautiful calligraphy pen-nibs ready for lovely writing.I take my hat off to Martin and Anna for the valuable expertise and service of the company.Posted by Ian, England (5/5) 29-04-2026
My TWSBI pen was quite badly damaged and unusable. The Writing Desk brought it back to life and I am so happy to be able to use it once more. The entire process from enquiry to completion was smooth efficient and hassle free. Needless to say the quality of the work done was second to none. Thank you Anna & Martin. I cannot recommend your service highly enoughPosted by Daniel A, UK (5/5) 28-04-2026
I sent my 1939 Parker Vacumatic for a bladder repair and general look at. I'm really pleased with the result, A family heirloom is now looking great and fully functional. The Writing Desk also customised my Pelikan M600 nib to a Stub, which I'm really pleased with as well.Great service and very reasonable cost. It's nice to know of a trustworthy place to use in the future.Posted by Julian, United Kingdom (5/5) 27-04-2026
Although they couldn’t repair my Mont Blanc, they explained why and added in a cartridge so I can use it but didn’t charge me for their time in looking nor for the cartridge. I wouldn’t have thought of using a cartridge! Thank you so much.Posted by Sheila Munro, Scotland (5/5) 30-03-2026
I sent my dry nib Parker 51 for tuning and Martin and Anna did a superb job and transformed the pen. I think they spent a lot of time on it. The price was more than reasonable. Very impressive.Posted by Alan, United Kingdom (5/5) 14-03-2026
I was delighted with my recent Writing Desk experience. The work was done without a hitch and my pen hasn't been as good to write with in many a long year.. I wouldn't have any hesitation about recommending them.Posted by Margaret Pegler, United Kingdom (5/5) 06-03-2026
Excellent service, Willing to talk me through the options and a very quick turn around. A fabulous price to repair my pens and they came back almost as good as new (just normal wear and tear).Posted by S Roberts, United Kingdom (5/5) 30-01-2026
The Writing Desk service is brilliant. Twice I have very stupidly dropped my Sailor pen (precious to me because it was given to me by my best friend, now, sadly, dead) and twice the Writing Desk have carried out the repairs. It is better than new. The service is quick and friendly. The charge was modest. I cannot overly recommend them.Posted by Jonathan Self, UK (5/5) 04-12-2025
