Welcome to Barley Bank Turnery, the home of high class woodturned creations and luxury writing instruments. On the following pages you will find a selection of my high class woodturned decorative and functional items and luxury hand made pens, all of which are available for sale in my on-line shop.

PENS 

I specialise in creating luxury pens made from a variety of materials, which include:- Native and exotic hardwoods, acrylics, polyesters, Corian, artificial granite, horn and indeed any other decorative material which can be turned and polished to a high class finish.

All my pens are made using the finest quality fittings available, in fact the same fittings used to make some of the most expensive commercially made pens.  Fittings may be 24ct gold, platinum, titanium, rhodium or polished chrome plating.

Fountain pens are fitted with a high quality German made writing nib and accommodate either a standard ink cartridge or a refillable plunger type reservoir enabling choice of ink colour.

Rollerball pens are supplied with a safety ceramic refill, whilst ballpoints are of the 'Cross' or 'Parker' type.  Refills available from all good stationery outlets.

Whichever pen you choose to purchase you may be assured of many years of writing pleasure.
