-ABOUT US
Welcome! It's good to see you here.
I'm Andy Deschacht. Together with my wife
Laura Garcia Belli, we are the "G-D" team:
I craft pens, she presents them by doing our website
taking photos and making videos.
Design, inspiration and ideas are a shared adventure...
It all started as "Enlightened Wood".
That project was the result of putting our hearts and imagination to make one-of-a-kind creations in wood.
It was a period of improvement, research and challenges.
Based on the same concept I created our first writing instruments and then we decided to start with
GARCIA -DESCHACHT,
crafting pens using special wood, metals and other materials for their designs, always prioritizing their writing quality.
High-end & handcrafted, unique & original,
not mass/ serial production.
Something special...That's what we love to do upgrading continuously our working and artistic skills.
In each finished pen we see a functional artwork that beams a lot of important values for us: excellence, distinction, creativity, dedication, love, enthusiasm, respect and gratitude...
"There is no lighter burden, nor more agreeable, than a pen.
Other pleasures fail us or wound us while they charm, but the pen we take up rejoicing and lay down with satisfaction, for it has the power to advantage not only its lord and master, but many others as well, even though they be far away — sometimes, indeed, though they be not born for thousands of years to come"
— F. Petrarch
MATERIALS

Pens are pretty much our daily companions...
Although most of us are probably not aware of it, they play an important role in our lives...
A pen can be a piece of art, a practical tool, a wealth carried forward through generations, a gift, a luxury accessory, a memory, a collector's item or /and a piece of history.
Whether a letter, a signature or a note, each person's handwriting is unique and different, like our pens...
