Tom's wife Gemma was an avid calligrapher, but the calligraphy pens she was using just didn't look the part next to her beautiful work. Tom used his design experience to make beautiful pens for her to use. And it turned out, calligraphy pens that look as good as the calligraphy they're being used for, are things a lot of other people wanted. So he founded Tom's Studio to create a range of lovely and highly practical calligraphy pens.
