At BradburyART, we love tools that are made with intention — and the Wren Pen from Tom’s Studio is exactly that. Beautifully made, refillable, and designed for everyday writing, it's a pen you’ll reach for again and again.
Why Choose the Wren?
Each year, an estimated 9 billion pens end up in landfill. Most of them are plastic, single-use, and nearly impossible to recycle. Tom Gyr, the designer behind Tom’s Studio, saw this problem first-hand as a calligraphy toolmaker — and decided to do something about it.
The result? The Wren: a pen designed to be refilled, not replaced.
✅ Built for Everyday Use
The Wren Pen isn't just about good intentions — it writes beautifully too.

And with a single fill, you can write up to 334 metres — the same height as the Eiffel Tower. That’s a lot of notes, lists, and letters without a single bit of plastic waste.
🖋️ Getting Started with The Wren: Simple Refilling, No Fuss
One of the best things about The Wren is how easy it is to use from day one. Refilling the pen takes just a minute, and there’s no complicated setup. Here’s how it works:
How to Fill The Wren:
-
Unscrew the pen barrel.
-
Gently remove the cotton core reservoir.
-
Using a pipette or syringe, soak the reservoir in your favourite fountain pen ink.
-
Reinsert the inked reservoir into the barrel.
-
Screw the pen back together — you’re ready to write.
The Wren comes with a reusable cotton core already inside and a 3ml sample of Midnight ink to help you get started. It's compatible with any fountain pen ink, including shimmer and iridescent varieties.
If you're switching inks, simply rinse the cotton core under warm water and let it dry before refilling.
♻️ Pair It with Tom’s Studio Inks
We also stock a range of Tom’s Studio bottled inks in-store and online — perfect for pairing with the Wren. The ink bottles are glass, easy to store, and full of rich colour. Refilling is simple and quick (and oddly satisfying).
Less plastic. More joy in writing.
