Handmade Wooden Pens
“Every pen is unique – no two pens can ever be the same. Responsibly sourced, sustainable woods from the UK and around the world.”
Pens
I started in my hobby making wooden pens. Each pen goes through an intensive process which includes cutting, trimming, turning on my lathe, much sanding and lots and lots of polish.
I am constantly sourcng and buying new pen materials, and I look forward to talking with you about your pen and keyring requirements.

Handmade Wooden Keyrings
“Each keyring I create is a small celebration of wood’s natural beauty.”
Keyrings
Crafting keyrings brings me particular joy. There’s something meditative about shaping these small pieces of wood, watching as each one reveals its unique character. The process allows me to focus entirely on the subtle details – from selecting the perfect grain pattern to achieving that silky-smooth finish that’s so satisfying to hold.
Keyring woods:

Carefully selected exotic and domestic woods are used to create unique tea light candle holders. Each tea light holder is set with a nickel cup. The metal protects the surrounding wood from damage and gives a nice finishing touch to each piece.
These are very occasionally available as matched sets – please contact me for details.
