Please let me introduce myself. My name is Frank Nuovo, I am VP, Chief Designer for Nokia, and founder and Creative Director of Vertu, the new luxury communications company based in the UK. My principle studios for Nokia and for Vertu are located in Southern California.

This weekend I found two wonderful displays with your pens in a high quality card shop in Santa Monica, California. I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your work. I purchased two of them, the leather covered pencil and the high polish push pencil. These pieces are also similar to a dark anodized push pencil I purchased somewhere in Germany a while back - might also be yours but there was no brand mentioned on the pencil. Wonderful weight and substantial quality of these products are appreciated along with simplicity.

In any case, I look forward to visiting your shop at some time. I have an extensive collection of modern pens and pencils made from various natural materials. My collection is not about high cost but about uniqueness and I am happy to add to my collection regularly. As I visit the UK once per month (our production for Vertu in in Church-Crookham) I would appreciate a visit to discuss your unique designs one day as well.

I just wanted to let you know I received the hexagonal scribbler pencil yesterday and I am SO pleased with my purchase. My fiance's birthday isn't until Friday and the only way I could stop myself from giving it to him immediately was to wrap it up and hide it. I love it so much I wanted to start using it myself! It has such a great weight to it. He is going to LOVE it!

Thank you again - it was a pleasure doing business with you and I will be sure to pass on your name to my other designer/architect friends that will undoubtedly LOVE your products as well.
