Today more than ever we are looking for ways to reconnect with our heritage, looking for things that link us with the past, authentic, timeless, things that make the past come alive and that’s why we have used Irish wood that carries in its very DNA the history of Ireland to craft these classically designed writing instruments.
If you are looking for a special gift that will become part of its owner’s life and will acknowledge their creative personality the Woodland gift set we believe is will exceed your expectations. Be it a 25th or 5th wedding anniversary, graduation or just a special event and you are looking for the perfect gift, you may just have found it!
The pens are made with Irish Grown Elm, a rare wood in itself self but we have taken this set one step further by using BURLED Irish Elm. The grain and colour of this wood are so beautiful, you could say that the patterns are manic, nothing makes sense, and that is what makes it so rare and so different. The Elm came originally from the midlands of Ireland, we got the wood from a clockmaker who retired and had lots of Elm offcuts built up in his stores for over 30 years, too small for his work but perfect for our pens. Only a tiny proportion of the wood was burled making your pen extra special, rare and unique also!
Our specially selected Irish burled Elm complements the highest jewellery grade Rhodium and Titanium finishes to produce our Woodland writing set of fountain pen and rollerball pen. We have installed a Peter Bock made nib in the fountain pen and an all Swiss-made rollerball refill with Swiss ink and Swiss components to ensure that both pens deliver the best possible writing experience. Replacement rollerball refills are available worldwide as are Peter Bock nibs. We also stock them on our website.
When individuality is becoming increasingly rare, we can engrave either or both pens for you. 20 characters maximum we suggest not detracting from the wood beauty, select "Yes engrave", add your text for each pen in the dialogue box and leave the rest to us.
NEW SOLID IRISH OAK PEN BOX
Presenting a high-quality handmade writing pen for an extraordinary occasion?
Enhance your pen gift with an exceptional pen box. Our clients worldwide have asked us for a wooden gift/presentation box for our pens. So, to satisfy our clients, we have worked with a local master cabinetmaker to craft a solid wooden pen box handmade in Cavan from Irish Oak. Irish Oak, the "King of the forest", was the obvious choice for us as it represents many of Ireland’s qualities. Like our wooden pens, the box is as unique as your fingerprints.
We are reluctant to sell Rosewood boxes anymore because of Rosewood’s status as an endangered species.
We engrave your words directly into the Irish Oak. If you have any special text requests or perhaps a logo you would like engraved, please email, or call us any time to discuss.
The box is 180mm long, 70mm wide and 50mm high; 220 gm in weight bottom is lined with a green baize fabric with an oak pen rest. The hinges are an antique brass finish. The box is sealed with lacquer so not to hide any of the wood’s natural beauty.
We engrave our registered "The Trees" trademark on the lid of the box. The box is wrapped in branded tissue paper and then wrapped in a recyclable card to protect it during shipping. This is a 100% environmental option for that exceptional pen gift box.
As a personal, corporate, or club gift, no other pen in the world is exactly like yours!
Sustainability is high on everyone’s agenda, by using one of our handmade pens and only replacing the refill you help the environment by not contributing to the BILLIONS of plastic biros that go to landfills every year.
- The fountain pen used a Peter Bock made size 5 nib, it comes with an internationally sized ink cartridge and an ink pump converter so bottled ink can also be used.
- The rollerball pen uses standard-sized rollerball type ballpoint refills available worldwide
