Your pen is called a

Sheelin Olive Wood ballpoint pen Titanium and Gold trim


The wooden body of your pen was hand-turned, and the pen was assembled and posted all from our workshop in Ireland's heritage capital of Kells County Meath by Catherine & Richard Daly. 

  • The wood in your pen:

Olive wood is a true masterpiece of nature, renowned for its rich golden hues, intricate grain patterns, and smooth, luxurious finish when turned by hand on a lathe. 
Each piece tells a unique story, with swirls and veins creating a unique design, making it highly sought after for fine craftsmanship. Beyond its beauty, olive wood is exceptionally durable, with a natural lustre that deepens over time, adding to its charm. It is sustainably sourced from pruned branches and carries the warmth of the Mediterranean and a timeless elegance, perfect for handcrafted treasures like luxury pens.

  • The trim of your pen:
The trim is Black, titanium, and gold, which complements the beauty of the Olive Wood.
  • The refill in your pen:

Your pen is a ballpoint pen using a Parker-type ballpoint refill. With its oil-based ink, the refill delivers an excellent, easy writing experience. The advantage of the ballpoint is the virties of surfaces it will write on, its quick to dry and not pron to smudging. This refill is widely available in all good stationery stores and on our website. Click this link to order the refill for this pen.

  • How to change the refill

 

At Irish Pens, we are delighted to pay homage to the woods at the heart of our handmade pen by sponsoring the planting of Native Irish Trees in the forest of Avoca, Co. Wicklow, Ireland, through the Tree Council of Irelands tree sponsorship scheme. A proportion of the sale of your pen has made this possible.

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago; the next best time is now.

 

  •  The pen case:
We supply your pen in a stylish black pen case that will protect your pen and ensure it is always at hand for use. We moved away from single-use pen boxes because putting a pen box in the bin is not part of our philosophy to reduce waste wherever possible. 

We post our pen in a Jiffy Green padded mailer with no bubble wrap, and the bag that holds the pen and the information card is fully recyclable.

Over 4 Billion plastic pens and their packaging go to landfills in the USA alone every year, so when the refill is empty, change it and keep using your pen. It is all the small things we do that help the environment.
