We designed our Feadán <Fa-don> pen range. Hence, routine writing tasks become infinitely more enjoyable; utilising a simple and minimalist form, we pay homage to the beauty of the wood we craft from; the wood's utterly original character gives certainty that each Feadán is unique. Feadán is the Irish word for tube, and the shape and function of a tube is to allow unfettered movement within it; a Feadán is a tactile conduit enabling the unfettered flow of feelings to paper for the intimate writing task that is anything but routine when words and emotion are so expressive that they need to be shared as has always been the way in Irish literary heritage, holding a pen made from wood grown in Ireland is a beautiful way to connect with that heritage.

The Irish oak tree is much-loved in Celtic mythology for its strength and longevity. Known as the ‘King of the Forest’, for thousands of years, Druids have worshipped the Irish Oak as their most sacred tree. The word Druid comes from the Celtic word for Oak, ‘Duir’. The Druids also believed that the Oak tree is host to the strength and energy of their gods, so catching a falling Oak leaf brings good luck and prosperity.

In Irish mythology, the Irish Oak symbolises truth, courage and wisdom. This derives from the Ancient Celts, who observed the Oak’s incredible strength, beauty, and noble presence. Irish oak has been used for centuries to build and decorate state buildings, churches and even the longboats in Viking times.

The tubular design is very tactile; holding the pen has a playfulness to it, and lining up the wood grain each time the cap is posted is fun and addictive.

Laying or standing on a desk or resting on a notepad at a meeting, the Feadán will be noticed. Still, as with all good design, form must follow function, so we installed an all-Swiss-made rollerball refill as standard to provide the best writing experience.

We also make this pen as a FOUNTAIN PEN- have a quick look

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.

Please give one of our fountain pens with our ink pump; the only thing you don't use is the empty glass ink bottle that is recycled; how green is that!

At a time when individuality is becoming increasingly rare, we can engrave the pen for you. 

  • All Swiss rollerball refill
  • Pen length 145mm or 5.7 inches capped 127mm or 5 inches uncapped
  • Pen weight 44gm or 1.55oz capped 30gm or 1 ounce uncapped
  • If you have any questions about this range or any of our pens, please get in touch with us by email at info@irishpens.ie any time.

Solid oak pen box upgrade

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; as Rosewood is a protected species, we collaborated with a local expert cabinetmaker to craft a solid Irish Oak pen box. Oak, the "King of the forest", was the obvious choice for us as it represents Ireland’s qualities. Like our wooden pens, each box is as unique as your fingerprints.

  • Box Facts:
  • Solid Oak
  • Suitable for one or two pens
  • Oak pen rests
  • Engrave the inner lid with your personal message
  • Add a logo to the inner lid
  • We can also engrave the top of the box; contact us to discuss your requirements
  • 180mm long | 70mm wide | 50mm high | 220 gm | baize fabric lined base | antique brass hinge
  • 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.

The pen pictured was handmade by us; your pen will be of the same wood, as no two wood pieces are the same; that is your certainty that your pen will be unique. Like the pen pictured, we will select the most interesting wood to craft your pen from. It takes us about 3 days to craft a pen.

Winning gift

The recipient is very fussy about most things including his pens and writing accessories so this was a bit of a gamble, but he loved it, the Irish Oak was a winner as he loves the feel and look of it, his goto rollerball pen now. I think the fountain pen for his birthday?
Thank you Richard for getting the pen to me so quickly.

Hi Peter, looking forward to the fountain pen order!! Irish Oak does have a special grain to it, guess thats why its the King of the forest. Thank you for your review it really helps others to choose one of our pens for that special gift. Richard
