About us
From Industry Insiders to Your Personal Curators.
Founded by Louisa and Helen—a decade of expertise, distilled into one boutique.
A Decade of Stationery Mastery
Before Pen & Tool, we spent over 10 years in the heart of the stationery wholesale industry. We supplied the world’s largest chain stores and luxury boutiques, but through that experience, we discovered a hidden truth about "Big Retail."
Traditional retailers are often burdened by high commissions, marketing overhead, and multiple layers of middlemen. These inefficiencies drive up costs by 30% to 50%—a premium that you, the customer, are forced to pay. We knew there was a better way.
The Pen & Tool Difference
🚀 Direct & Lean
By shipping directly from our favorite factories to our specialized hubs in Hong Kong and Taiwan, we bypass the middleman. This model allows us to deliver premium tools at fair prices while reducing our environmental footprint.
🎨 Design-Driven
We act swiftly on inspiration. While big stores play it safe, we prioritize vibrant colors, limited editions, and expert craftsmanship. We don't just follow trends; we help define them.
Exclusive Collaborations
Our industry heritage has allowed us to partner with iconic brands to create something truly unique. If you have been inspired by our Kaweco Sport collaborations—including Rose Gold, Lagoon Blue, Serenity Blue, Rose Quartz, and Lilac—then you have seen our passion in action.
Our Simple Promise
Creative tools should be accessible, high-quality, and inspiring. Find what you love, order with confidence, and we will deliver it to your home. No middlemen. Just curated excellence.
Thank you for being part of our story.
