FOUNTAIN PEN
REPAIR and RESTORATION

Since 1997

FOUNTAIN PEN REPAIR AND RESTORATION

Typical Restoration of your fountain pen includes (but not limited to): replacement of bladder, diaphragm, seals (as necessary), disassembly of nib / feed, clear ink channel, reassembly, flow testing and final polish to restore as close to original appearance as possible. We are extremely proficient in all filling systems, if not listed, please inquire for a quote.

Our standard turnaround is the fastest in the industry.  How can we offer a standard turnaround of a couple weeks when other shops have a 6 – 8 month turnaround?  My best response would be…

Restoring fountain pens is not something I do on the side a few hours a week, restoring fountain pens is what I do all day, everyday.

Pentiques began in 1997 as a hobby, which evolved over the years into a full-time occupation.  In 2007 my wife Kim and I made the decision to take Pentiques full-time (right before the economy crashed).  Read our full story

Bench Fee:

At our discretion, a bench fee of $15 per pen will apply if the pen is deemed non-repairable. This fee recovers labor spent in review, assessment and reassembly of the pen. We are able to restore the vast majority of fountains pens received for repair or restoration, we reserve this fee only for the rare cases where we invest an hour or so only to discover the pen can not be repaired.
