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

The wood at the heart of your pen:

Irish Bog Oak rests at the heart of your hand-crafted pen — a wood unlike any other, steeped in a history that reaches back over 5,000 years, older even than the Pyramids themselves. Hidden in Ireland's soft, peaty soil for millennia, it emerges darkened, hardened, and rich with the quiet strength of time. There's something profoundly moving about holding a piece of this ancient world in your hand — the weight of it, the texture, the deep, dusky tones whispering stories from long before our own. To honour that heritage, your pen has been lovingly finished with the finest beeswax, just as Irish sculptors have done for generations — a gentle, time-honoured method that lets the wood breathe and shine.

As the artisans of old shaped beauty from this sacred timber, may this pen stir your own creativity — a humble but powerful connection to Ireland's enduring spirit and timeless artistry.

  • The trim of your pen:
The trim is jewellery-grade Rhodium with Titanium Gold accents, complementing the beautiful darkness of the ancient bog oak. 
  • The refill in your pen:

Your pen is a rollerball pen using an international-sized rollerball refill. With its water-based oil ink, the refill delivers an excellent, easy writing experience. The advantage of the rollerball is its super ink flow, which allows your words to flow easily onto the paper. It dries quickly and is not prone 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 Ireland's 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.

 

  • About Your Presentation Box:

    The pen set you received has been presented in an oak-finished box inspired by the Book of Kells, carefully chosen to reflect the same values of craftsmanship, heritage, and lasting quality that define the pens within. The box is made in Kells exclusively for Irish Pens.

    Crafted to evoke the warmth and timelessness of Irish oak, this elegant presentation box is more than protective packaging—it is an extension of the gift itself. Its wood-grain finish offers a natural, tactile connection to Ireland's storied forests, symbolising strength, resilience, and enduring legacy.

    Whether displayed on a desk, kept as a keepsake, or used to store your pens safely between uses, the box enhances both the presentation and preservation of this thoughtful gift.

    We hope you enjoy the experience of owning a writing instrument that arrives not just beautifully made, but beautifully presented, rooted in the traditions of Irish artistry and built to last.


    Over 4 billion plastic pens and their packaging end up in landfills in the USA alone every year. When the refill is empty, change it and continue using your pen. It's all the small things we do that help the environment.
