The company became notable for its fountain pensFountain Pens: United States of America and United Kingdom it also produced ballpoint pens. Conway Stewart was placed in receivership inwith its stocks and assets acquired by Bespoke British Pens Ltd. Nowadays, a wide range of fountain pens with the "Conway Stewart" brand are manufactured and marketed by Bespoke British Pens. Jarvis and Garner had previously worked for the De La Rue Company, the leading British fountain pen manufacturer of the time. Drawing on the experience they had gained at De La Rue, the two started their own business, initially reselling fountain pens manufactured by other companies. The name "Conway Stewart" was apparently derived from a popular music hall act of the time. The fountain pen market in Britain at that time was dominated by De La Rue and it was clear to Jarvis and Garner that only a very limited market share could be gained by reselling un-branded Fountain Pens: United States of America and United Kingdom pens. At the same time, De La Rue was embarking on a substantial marketing campaign by re-branding its products " Onoto ". Jarvis and Garner identified a market niche for attractive and reliable writing instruments at an affordable price. The s saw rapid development of the Conway Stewart product line. Pens of several different types of filling mechanisms, materials and sizes were offered for sale. The business model proved successful for Conway Stewart and its market share increased at the expense of other established manufacturers. As a result, Conway Stewart had outgrown its initial premises and in the company relocated to a larger facility which would serve as its home for the next two decades. During the depression years, the company was able to remain profitable, helped by the Fountain Pens: United States of America and United Kingdom perception of good value products. InConway Stewart went publicraising additional capital at the same time by offering shares. The years of World War II proved difficult for Conway Stewart and many other manufacturers; there were shortages of materials but the company managed to survive by continuing to offer good reliable pens Fountain Pens: United States of America and United Kingdom reasonable prices. Emerging from post-war austerity in Britain, the s proved to be golden years for Conway Stewart, with the creative use of coloured plastic reaching its peak. The company once again relocated to new premises, but the golden age proved to be short-lived. At the same time, the ballpoint pen was being developed and while initially unreliable and more expensive than comparably finished fountain pens, soon decreased rapidly in price. Conway Stewart, along with most other fountain pen manufacturers of the time, failed to anticipate the effect that this innovative product would have on fountain pen Fountain Pens: United States of America and United Kingdom. In the s, fountain pen sales declined very quickly and Conway Stewart began to feel the effect of falling revenues. The company tried to compete by offering lower priced fountain pens and also introduced ballpoint pens to its range. The company relocated to Crumlin, Caerphilly in Wales intaking advantage of regional development grants, but its financial health continued to deteriorate. Inthe company was wound-up and production ceased. The company was revived in Fountain Pens: United States of America and United Kingdom s, with headquarters in PlymouthEngland. Sales started inalthough some models had been produced for special occasions before that, including for the Heads of State attending the G8 Summit in Birmingham. On 28 Augustthe company was placed in receivership. The remaining stock, as well as the machinery and tooling, were sold off and its offices closed. Early models marketed by Conway Stewart were sourced from other manufacturers, were made of hard rubber and were indistinguishable from many other pens available at that time. By the mids, the company was establishing its own design style, helped by the use of colourful celluloid and casein plastics. Conway Stewart's model designation is a combination of names and numbers. Important named models with approximate age ranges include:. During the s, model names were dropped for all product lines apart from the Dinkie. The model numbering is not chronological and the same pen may appear with a different numbers depending on whether it was sold in Britain or exported. Major model numbers include:. Of particular note is the model 22 which was produced in the s in a floral pattern. This was produced in very small numbers compared to other models of the time. There is some uncertainty as to the number produced; estimates range from to After the early s injection moulded plastic of a uniform colour was used for the manufacture of pens. Nibs, which had been 14ct gold until this time, were generally replaced by stainless steel. Models produced in this era are made for the "high-end" of the market and feature precious metals, enamels and casein or celluloid plastics and 18ct gold nibs. Notable models include the Churchill. The Churchill being based on the larger red ripple hard rubber versions from the vintage conway stewarts. The brand was purchased by Don Yendle over a period of 3 years from to The trademark was then purchased by another company with a view to relaunching the brand on a range of fibre tipped pen for the mass market, only limited numbers were produced and in Don Yendle purchased the UK tradename from the company. In Don Yendle met with the directors of Shaeffer Australia who had registered the name with a view to relaunching a cheap range of Chinese pens for the Australian market. Having formed Conway Stewart as a Limited Company in the UK the trademark was registered in and Asia to ensure worldwide security for the brand. Having researched Conway Stewarts previous manufacturing history and techniques Don Yendle wanted to keep true to its core values from What followed were 3 years of research into Casein and plastics including vulcanite for barrels and feeders for nibs. The company even used a Birmingham-based company who still used a 1-metre pantograph to make the miniature moulds for the pen clips in order to keep the detail in Fountain Pens: United States of America and United Kingdom clips. All of the new clips were exactly the same size as the originals so pen collectors would have spares for the vintage pens they wished to repair. After much experimentation with slabs of casein from uk and some very old stock from Japan Conway Stewart re-launched in At that first exhibition the Foreign Office chose Conway Stewart as a supplier of gifts for Number Fountain Pens: United States of America and United Kingdom Downing Street and gifts from the government to visiting dignitaries. The first collections 58 series and Dinkies were all made from Fountain Pens: United States of America and United Kingdom with solid gold rings swaged on to each cap. Each slab of casein had to be cured for at least 3 months in drying room with just the right humidity. Returning the barrels to the drying room after each process in order to train the material to be 'round'. Each collection was limited to pcs based on material and colour. Each pen code and number laser engraved on to each barrel. The company then introduced designs Churchill series, 58, Dinkie in acrylic, solid silver, and solid gold. Two pieces were made in 18ct solid gold. The queen wrote a letter of thanks for the gift stating they were 'useful to boot'. The pens were originally made in Horrabridge and the company moved to its Plymouth premises in having outgrown the original premises. Conway Stewart introduced a few prototype celluloid pens, mainly as overlays on solid silver Duro pens. The company supplied another set of gold pens for the celebration of Her Majesty's Golden Jubilee featuring a hard rubber Churchill with an 18ct Overlay. Only a few pieces were sold. Don Yendle sold the company to an investor in October having established worldwide distribution. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. This article needs additional citations for verification.
