Six-Sided Pen with Original Winnie the Pooh Illustrations

Most pens with book tie-ins treat the artwork as branding—a logo stamped on something ordinary. This one uses the hexagonal barrel as a canvas for Shepard's actual line work, reproducing illustrations that defined how generations picture Pooh, Piglet, and their world. The hex shape itself solves the rolling problem and gives you positive feedback about where your fingers sit. For someone who grew up with those drawings or simply wants a pen that feels purposeful in the hand, the combination of practical geometry and faithful engraving makes this more than a collector's item—it's a tool that rewards use.

Good gift when

  • Fans of the original Winnie the Pooh books and illustrations
  • Writers who prefer pens with defined grip surfaces
  • People who value functional design over decorative details
  • Anyone looking for a daily pen with literary character

Skip it if If you prefer round barrels or find hexagonal profiles uncomfortable, the distinct flat sides will feel awkward rather than helpful. This is also not the pen for someone who wants minimalist, unmarked tools—the engraved illustrations are integral to the design.

The details

This special edition transforms Baron Fig's hexagonal Squire pen with engravings taken directly from E.H. Shepard's original illustrations for the Winnie the Pooh stories. The six flat sides of the barrel provide distinct contact points that give your fingers clear purchase as you write, while the engraved scenes from the Hundred Acre Wood wrap around the body.

The hexagonal profile is not decorative. Six sides mean the pen settles into your grip with less adjustment than a round barrel demands, and it won't roll off a tilted desk. The geometry also creates a sculptural presence that reads as intentional rather than generic.

Each illustration on the pen comes from Shepard's pen-and-ink work that accompanied A.A. Milne's original texts. The engravings reproduce those line drawings with precision, so the characters and settings appear as they did when the stories were first published. The artwork circles the barrel, making the pen a tactile connection to the source material rather than simply a licensed product with applied graphics.

The pen is built for sustained use. Its weight and length are calibrated to balance in the hand without requiring a tight grip, and the hex sides help maintain control during long writing sessions. The design prioritizes function—the shape serves your fingers, the engravings honor the original art, and the construction supports daily carry.

Questions

What illustrations appear on the pen?
The pen features engravings from E.H. Shepard's original pen-and-ink illustrations for A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh stories. These are reproductions of the artwork that appeared in the first published editions, showing characters and scenes from the Hundred Acre Wood as Shepard originally drew them.
Why does the hexagonal shape help with writing?
The six flat sides give your fingers distinct contact points, so the pen settles into a consistent grip position without adjustment. The hex profile also prevents the pen from rolling off angled surfaces, and the geometry creates a more controlled feel during extended writing compared to a smooth round barrel.
Is this pen refillable?
The Baron Fig Squire line is designed for long-term use with replaceable refills, though the specific refill type and availability depend on the pen mechanism. Check with Baron Fig directly for compatible refill options for the Squire Hex model.
Can this pen be personalized or engraved further?
The pen arrives with the Winnie the Pooh illustrations already engraved on the barrel. Adding custom engraving would require modifying the existing artwork, which may not be feasible or desirable given the special edition design.
