The Story

Handcrafted in solid sterling silver at Yard-O-Led’s historic Birmingham workshop, the Mayflower Fountain Pen is a tribute to classic British design and enduring craftsmanship. Its clean, confident form is enhanced by precisely cut engine-turned detailing, allowing the silver surface to reflect light with quiet refinement. The result is a pen that feels substantial in the hand, yet perfectly balanced for everyday writing.

Fitted with an 18ct gold nib, the Mayflower delivers a smooth, controlled writing experience with a natural flow that suits both daily notes and more considered correspondence. Every pen is made entirely by hand, using traditional techniques that have remained unchanged for generations—no shortcuts, no mass production.

We selected Yard-O-Led for EB London because they represent authentic British manufacturing at its best. Each piece is crafted in the UK, built to last, and designed to age gracefully with use. This is not a seasonal accessory, but an object of permanence—something to keep, use, and eventually pass on.

For private collectors, corporate gifting, or projects requiring discreet, British-made luxury, our concierge can advise on engraving options, presentation, and lead times.

Returns (make-to-order / personalised): If the pen is engraved/personalised, it is made specifically for you and is non-returnable, except in the event of a manufacturing fault. Non-personalised items are subject to our standard returns policy.

Key Features

Handcrafted in solid sterling silver — The Mayflower Fountain Pen is individually made by master silversmiths at Yard-O-Led’s historic Birmingham workshop, continuing a tradition of English silver craftsmanship dating back to 1934.
Mayflower engine-turned pattern — The finely cut, repeating motif is engraved directly into the silver, creating depth, texture, and a subtle play of light that enhances both grip and visual character.
Full-length, perfectly weighted design — Designed for extended writing sessions, the Mayflower offers natural balance and reassuring weight, giving it a confident presence without feeling heavy in the hand.
18ct gold nib — Fitted with a smooth, responsive 18-carat gold nib that delivers consistent ink flow and a refined writing line, available in Fine, Medium, or Broad to suit individual preference.
Cartridge and converter compatible — Accepts standard ink cartridges or a converter for bottled ink, allowing flexibility for daily use or more traditional writing routines.
Secure cap with classic proportions — Precisely engineered cap protects the nib and posts neatly while writing, maintaining the pen’s clean silhouette and functional balance.
Made in England, built to last — Crafted from solid silver rather than plated metal, the Mayflower develops a gentle patina over time, becoming a personal writing instrument intended to be used, kept, and passed on.
