ABOUT US:
At Hardin Penworks, what began as a hobby evolved into a passion and love for the timeless art of custom pen making.
Hardin Penworks is a US veteran owned and operated small business based in the heart of our nation’s capital. We began making shadow boxes as a hobby, mostly for separating & retiring military members. We’ve made several items over the years, but, over time, this evolved into a passion and love for the timeless art of custom pen making.
We put a lot of effort into searching the world for fine and interesting materials to create pens with stories that last a lifetime. It starts with a unique idea, and becomes a product (or work of art) you can use every day. The bottom line: a good pen never goes out of style, so we work hard to ensure our pens stand up to the test of time.
