About Us
Tom's Studio is a contemporary stationery brand dedicated to crafting joyful, thoughtful, and sustainably-minded products. Founded by Tom, who, for the first 5 years, handcrafted pens from creatively curated materials using an array of techniques and equipment that would make Willy Wonka proud. In the last few years, he has developed a range of beautiful tools and stationery that use the latest manufacturing processes and materials, which we sell to a global audience of wonderful, conscientious creators. As of 2024, the business is undergoing exciting growth, with plans to bring joyous stationery to even more desks and artists' studios worldwide. We are tackling unsustainable stationery with beautiful, innovative and infinitely refillable pens and creative tools.
To achieve this vision, we are seeking like-minded individuals to join us as we grow and to help us deliver world-class creative excellence to folk around the world. This is a chance to join an early stage start-up and be part of the refill-ution.
