I own the Lazlo (pen) and the drop holder, as well as the Ferrule (pencil). The Lazlo is by far my favorite pen (I'm quite a pen addict). The brass ages beautifully with use and the mechanism is smoot... See more

Tax, tax tax…

Beautifull pencil but when you purchase this pencil you have to pay tax before they will send the newly bought pencil to you.
After several day your package is at Customs and again you have to pay tax. Having to pay tax twice almost doubles the price

Hi Mark,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

While I understand your frustration, unfortunately we have no say or control over taxes or customs. The good news is, we are going to be opening a distribution centre within Europe so hopefully that will help our European customers avoid the extra fees and duties when receiving their goods!

I hope you enjoy using your Ferrule and get many years use out of it!

Brilliant functional and quality product

Superb quality product in performance and finish. Replaces typical modern and unreliable compasses for the size range and transforms the process of drawing and inking in circles with consistency and guaranteed concentricity. Great innovation and functionality.

Aesthetically pleasing and functional

The pencil plane is an expensive item, but it is beautifully made and functions better than any other device I have tried for safely and effectively sharpening softer pastel pencils.
Dispatched and delivered very very quickly...Delighted!!!

Fantastic customer service

I had a problem paying for an item not the website on a Sunday evening, by the time I checked my email on Monday morning the problem had been resolved and the overpayment refunded. This is what I call exceptional customer service. I just wish there were more products on offer, quality of those I have purchased is second to none.

The instagram ads were targeting me for weeks for a product that was sold out and had no preorder option. This feels like a adjustable oversight.

However, when I could finally order, the postage was very prompt.
