About Cult Pens Stationery 2026
Cult Pens' 2026 calendar is a black-and-white harlequin-diamond box (the Devon stationer's theme this year is the pantomime Harlequin) with 24 small boxes inside, each holding something from its favourite brands that makes a mark, rubs one out, stores a mark-maker or is made to be marked on. Cult Pens keeps the contents secret beyond a rough-idea spoiler page, but says day 24 holds a new fountain pen made exclusively for it by one of today's most exciting pen makers, and that the contents are worth at least twice the price.
100 GBP from Cult Pens on pre-order, shipping when the calendar arrives; a 12-day Premium edition at 550 GBP sits above it.

Twenty-four boxed pieces of stationery from Cult Pens' favourite brands — pens, pencils, erasers, cases and paper — with a new, exclusive fountain pen on day 24. Cult Pens keeps the list secret; a rough idea is on its spoiler page.
Cult Pens Stationery 2026 by the numbers
How each one is countedEvery figure is computed from the record at build time and set against the median of the same season and the same kind of contents. Door price is the price on the box over its doors; the value multiple is what the contents come to at retail over that price; full size is the retailer’s own marking. Where the record cannot support a figure, the page leaves it out rather than guessing.The definitions, one by one →Each figure against the median of this season's art shelf — 16 calendars. Green is the better side of the median, red the worse; the median is printed so you can disagree.

Our Cult Pens Stationery 2026 review
Our verdict
A 100 GBP box that ends with an exclusive fountain pen, in a harlequin case worth keeping. The doors are a secret beyond a rough spoiler, so it's a purchase on trust; of the stationery calendars, it's the one I'd buy.

it costs
Cult Pen puts a retail figure on what is behind the 24 doors; we have not re-priced every item ourselves, so treat the total as the brand's own number rather than ours. The mark on the bar is what you pay.
