The World’s finest fountain pen range
Yard-O-Led make some of the world’s most individual pens and pencils.
With the rise of the pc and iPhones, the humble pen has nearly been relegated to the same relevance as a quill. I think this is wrong, I’m not alone.
A handwritten letter is something that takes a little longer but means so much more than an email. From the heart, pens can be a tool for the soul.
I say embrace the pen!
Yard-O-Led have the world’s finest fountain pen range. It takes more than 2,000 strikes by hand to create the hand-chased ‘Victorian’ finish of just one pen.
There is nothing mass produced about these pens. Eight different processes to make its clip and a final moment of patience to number each one individually before it is sent off to be hallmarked.
Here’s just a few from the range -
The heavily engraved finish of the Viceroy Grand Victorian highlights the intricate work of the Yard-O-Led craftsmen, with each part of the detailed motif meticulously hammered by hand - £570.
The Esprit’s solid silver barrel is lacquered with a colour before an intricate, diamond shaped pattern is cut into it - £315.
The pearl finish of the Astoria harks back to the glorious 1920s and the elegant designs of the Art Deco era. Each acrylic barrel has a subtly unique pattern, with a pearlescent finish that is perfectly complemented by hallmarked solid silver features. Every Astoria is individually numbered and has a lifetime guarantee - £420.
All Yard-O-Led pens are supplied in a luxury presentation box with a polishing cloth.
