THE SPITFIRE PEN
TMB are pleased to cooperate with bespoke UK pen maker Onoto on a spectacular fountain pen crafted of Duralumin removed from Supermarine Spitfire Mk IX ‘MK356’, a true D-Day veteran.
A limited edition of just 100 pens, each is made of metal sourced from one of MK356’s original wing main spars. Comprising a gentle elliptical shape, apart from being a triumph of design and made of WW2 history, these pens are extremely tactile and a joy to use!

All with an historic twist…
TMB Art Metal is a small London based company dedicated to producing provenance sculptures, cufflinks and other items, the unique key to all being that they incorporate in their making, metal or material originating from the actual iconic subject the item represents.
Beautifully crafted cufflinks featuring amazing hand sculpted effigies of Sir Winston Churchill, made of 1940 Spitfire metal, true history on the cuff…
TMB are immensely proud of our association with the Royal British Legion, for whom we crafted historic poppy pins made of battlefield metal. For more information click HERE.
Where it all began . . .
The company was formed following the much publicised excavation of Hurricane fighter aircraft P2725 TM-B which crashed into Buckingham Palace Road, London on Battle of Britain Day, 15th September 1940. Post-excavation, and with TM-B’s Merlin engine safely on display within the Imperial War Museum, a limited number of Hurricane sculptures were crafted using actual ‘recycled’ redundant metal originating from the Hurricane itself. One example was presented to Her Majesty The Queen at Buckingham Palace – a sculpture made of metal from the actual aircraft that had saved the Palace, her home, six decades earlier.
Such was the interest in these unique sculptures actually made of history and imbued with provenance that TMB Art Metal was formed to expand the concept and the exclusive limited edition product range.
