We are proud to sell a lot of local brands at Pure Pens. With our range of Pure Pens Fountain Pen Ink being about as local as you could get! We bottle and label up the ink here on site. They are inspired by UK landmarks and symbols.
Another very local supplier from a beautiful place in the world is The Crayon Bug. The Crayon Bug are just a few hours drive from us down the M4 to the beautiful county of Pembrokeshire. They are a small company producing fun shaped crayons. Perfect for party bags or children's birthday and Christmas gifts.
Have you come across some of the greetings cards we stock? We have some beautiful cards designed and made by an artist from Newport. After working for greetings cards companies for years she saw a gap in the market and set up her own business creating Welsh language greetings cards. Just like us, they love all things Welsh. The cards feature beautiful Welsh landmarks or phrases and sayings such as 'Cwtches' and 'Oh! What's Occurring?'.
We have worked closely with Diamine for many years. Based in Liverpool, they began in 1864. We still have a little catching up to do but over the years we have produced collaborations together with Diamine, with them producing a best selling anniversary ink for us in 2019.
