Shannon Eclipse Fountain Pen – Handmade from 5,000-Year-Old Irish Bog Oak with Black Titanium Trim

Luscious and earthy—words not often used to describe a pen, yet the Shannon Eclipse fountain pen earns them effortlessly. This writing instrument pairs ancient Irish Bog Oak with a smoky black titanium trim and a bi-colour gold and steel nib, creating a writing experience that is both refined and sensual.

Our Shannon fountain pen range is named after the River Shannon, the longest river in Ireland. Like a river of ink, this pen allows thoughts and creativity to flow from mind to page with ease and grace. Whether it rests on a desk, lies within a journal, or makes a statement in a boardroom, the Shannon Eclipse pen will be noticed—and remembered.

Crafted using Irish Bog Oak over 5,000 years old, this pen is steeped in history. Preserved in peat bogs for millennia, the timber has emerged with a distinct dark richness. We treat it with the same oils used by Irish wood sculptors to preserve its character, texture, and story. It’s not just a pen—it’s a connection to Ireland’s ancient past.
