Grove Ballpoint Pen – Handcrafted from 5,000-Year-Old Irish Bog Oak
A pen crafted by time and tradition. The Grove Ballpoint Pen is turned from genuine Irish Bog Oak, dating back over 5,000 years. Each pen is finished with luxurious Rhodium and Black Titanium trim, combining ancient material with modern elegance to create a writing instrument of true distinction.
Handmade in Kells – Inspired by Heritage
Crafted in our Kells workshop, every Grove pen is a story of Irish legacy and craftsmanship. We finish each pen with natural oils used by Bog Oak sculptors, preserving the rich texture and colour of this ancient wood, allowing the user to experience a tactile link to Ireland’s distant past.

Your Grove pen is presented in our signature satin-lined luxury box. Each box includes a digital fact sheet, accessed via a QR code, offering insights into the pen’s origin, care instructions, and the history of Irish Bog Oak.

Excellent service and fast delivery
This is the second item I have purchased from Richard and Catherine and once again could not be more satisfied with the service and quality of workmanship on the Bog Oak pencil I received. More than happy to recommend this couple and Irish Pens if you are considering making a purchase. One of a kind pens and pencils for a lifetime of use.
John, thank you for your kind words, they mean a lot to Catherine and me, we are delighted you are happy with your pencil. If we can be of any help in the future please let us know. Richard
It is so hard to get a reliable mechanical pencil but yours has performed excellently. I have always used a pencil for sketching and note-taking but most of the pencils I have had don't match the mechanism of this pencil. Great work guys, keep it up.
Thank you, Catherine and Richard, for the love and care you put into making my pen, it was a gift for a very close friend and they were so happy with it, a win-win. Jess
