I've placed two different orders and have been extremely happy. Living in the US I was a little worried about ordering from overseas, but The Writing Desk has been wonderful all the way. I appreciated their updating me when something had shipped and the pens were exquisite. Would recommend them without any reservation. Posted by Luis Bendezu, USA (5/5) 20-03-2017 Verified Purchase |

If you use a fountain pen and you want a specialist service, as I did, then The Writing Desk is probably the only place in England that can help you. I had been searching for several years to find a firm able to access a craftsman able to modify a gold nib for my Pilot Capless pen to an italic. I was on the point of trying a company in USA, when I discovered The Writing Desk. Both Anna and Martin were extremely courteous, helpful and patient, particularly when I held up proceedings with a holiday. I now have the nib, ground down to match my regular script. The service I received was excellent. Thank you. Posted by Cherry Stephenson, UK (5/5) 11-03-2017 Verified Purchase |
I've been buying my supplies from Anna and Martin since my Uni days dating back to 2002-ish. I left England post-2008 after my Masters and since then pretty much order all my inks exclusively from them.Highly recommended!!Best wishes, Mike.

My Pelikans all (3) write a wet line so no good on cheaper stock. Mentioned to Martin when buying an EF for my M205 and added Pelikan 4001 ink on his recommendation. The tuned nib is gorgeous. No other word for it. I'm not big on flexy but there's the tiniest give in the nib which complements my tendency to add a flourish here and there. Love it.Thanks guys.

After an impatient and anxious wait, my Fireblue Liliput arrived safe and sound today. It is beautiful with the bronze clip and is tuned to write exactly as I hoped! Thanks so much! Posted by Kristine Martin, Canada (5/5) 07-03-2017 Verified Purchase |
I ordered my Pelikan classic 250 because I was experiencing flow problems with my Conklin All American and my TWSBI dia 580 (to a lesser extent). It was the first time I've spent so much on a pen, but boy I'm glad I did. It writes beautifully, no flow problems and a very classy feel in the hand. It is quite small, but the writing experience is so good it more that makes up for it. In fact it's just encouraging me to save up for an m800 tortoise shell. The service from TWD was excellent as per usual and I would highly recommend them to anyone, their after sales service is first class too. I wouldn't buy from anyone else.
