Shannon Eclipse Pen – Handmade from Irish Bog Oak with Black Titanium and Gold Trim
Luscious and earthy are not often words associated with writing instruments, but the Shannon Eclipse Pen challenges that notion. Crafted from 5,000-year-old Irish Bog Oak and paired with a dark, smoky Black Chrome trim touched with gold, this pen exudes richness, heritage, and pride of ownership.
Named after Ireland’s largest river, the Shannon pen mirrors its namesake—flowing smoothly and carrying thoughts and creativity to paper with ease. Whether you choose the fountain pen or rollerball option, the Shannon Eclipse is a writing instrument that inspires with every stroke.
Whether placed on a desk, carried in a notebook, or presented during a meeting, its sculptural form and deeply grained wood make it impossible to overlook. As a gift, it will be remembered and appreciated every time it's used.
Ancient Irish Craftsmanship
The Bog Oak used in this pen predates the Pyramids. For more than 5,000 years, it rested beneath the peatlands, absorbing the essence of Ireland. We finish each piece using the same natural oils used by traditional Bog Oak sculptors, enhancing its deep colour and rich texture without masking its heritage.
Writing Options & Performance
- Fountain Pen: Fitted with a German-made size 6 medium bi-colour nib
- Rollerball Pen: Supplied with a Swiss-made rollerball refill for smooth, consistent ink flow
Sustainable Gifting, Irish Made
Our handmade pens are built to last. By refilling instead of replacing, you help reduce the billions of plastic biros that end up in landfills every year.
For fountain pen users, each pen includes a reusable ink converter and a black ink cartridge. The only thing you’ll discard is the recyclable glass ink bottle—how green is that?
Personalised Engraving
