How does it work?
We use a state of the art laser engraving machine which gently etches away the top layer of the pen to reveal the base metal underneath.
The colour of engraving depends on the base metal underneath. Lacquered pens tend to engrave with a brass finish, whilst chrome pens with a subtle two tone effect (check preview on every product page). We also offer 3 font choices;
What can I engrave?
We can engrave any letter, number or character that can entered from a standard computer keyboard, in any language. This includes English, Arabic, Hebrew, Greek, Cyrillic etc.
We can engrave UTF8 symbols. Either choose from our list or copy and paste your own.
Each pen has a limit to the amount of characters we can engrave due to its size and curvature. Look out for the character limit on each product page. If you cant quite fit your message with the allowable characters, please call us and we will see what we can do.
Where is my message engraved?
Barrel or cap end – see engrave preview on the product page
How much does engraving cost?
All individual pens cost £7, and pen sets cost £10 (both pens are engraved with the same message)
Will engraving delay my order?
No. Because we engrave in-house, all orders placed before 3pm are despatched the same day.
Can you Engrave Logos?
Yes - generally our minimum order value is £250. Please call us for a quote on 0208 731 8610.
Smart lined detailing and gleaming chrome bring a little retro style to this Cross pencil. First conceived in 1946, the slimline silhouette of the Classic Century serves to this day as an icon of mid-century modern design. Its unique bi-directional rotation system propels and retracts the lead with a simple twist.

I placed the order for the pencil in error and Chris at Pen Heaven came to my rescue. He changed the order from pencil to the pen, which is what I ordered incorrectly.

I have been a fan of Cross products for many years and have several items, roller ball, mechanical pencils and biros.
Written on 22-Apr-2021
Everything I've come to expect from Cross. The pencil mechanism works perfectly and the 0.7mm refills fit just right.
Having got the ballpoint as a gift many years ago and then the fountain pen for christmas 2 years ago, I got the pencil for my birthday this year. My collection is now complete! And more importantly perhaps, we are now a plastic disposable pen free household :-)

Easy to use propelling pencil which also has a rubber.
I do find the clip a little tight which makes it difficult to secure in a handbag.
