Luscious and Earthy are not often words you associate with a rollerball pen. Still, the combination of ancient bog oak and a provocative dark smoky smooth pen trim with its touch of gold creates an aura of satisfaction in owning a Shannon Eclipse fountain pen. The Eclipse's exquisite styling is enriched by the Swiss-made rollerball we install, ensuring this pen delivers a total sensual writing experience. 

Our Shannon rollerball pen is named after the largest river in Ireland; this rollerball pen will impress any connoisseur of pen writing. Like a river of ink, the pen carries its user's thoughts and creativity from their consciousness to paper effortlessly.

Resting on a writing desk, nestled in a notebook or sitting staunchly on a writing pad on a meeting or board room table, this Shannon rollerball pens design and the detail in the wood we used make it unique, a gift that will impress its user and will be noticed by those who see it in use. The gift you gave will be remembered every time this rollerball pen is held and its ink flows.

We have crafted the pen using bog oak older than the Pyramids; this pen is more than 5,000 years in the making! We do not rush things in Ireland! The beauty of Bog Oak is in its feel and colour, so to ensure we don't mask that experience, we finish our pens in special oils that Bog Oak sculptors use to capture the essence of every minute of the 5,000 years of history in this pen.

We install an all-Swiss-made rollerball refill in this pen; the Swiss-made water-based ink in the refill delivers a smooth and free-flowing writing experience like a printer connected directly to your consciousness.

The rollerball refill is a standard international size and is available in any stationary store, online or on our website.

Sustainability is high on everyone's agenda; by using one of our handmade pens and only replacing the refill, you help the environment by not contributing to the BILLIONS of plastic biros that go to landfill every year.

Give one of our fountain pens with our ink pump; the only thing you don't use is the empty glass ink bottle that is recycled; how green is that?

We post our pens in our recyclable pen gift box (pictured), wrapped in corrugated cards and placed in a biodegradable mailer bag; it's our way of greening what we do and minimising our environmental impact.

At a time when individuality is becoming increasingly rare, we can engrave the pen for you.

Solid oak pen gift box upgrade

Are you presenting a high-quality handmade writing pen for an extraordinary occasion?

Enhance your pen gift with an exceptional pen box. Our clients worldwide have asked us for a wooden gift/presentation box for our pens; as Rosewood is a protected species, we collaborated with a local expert cabinetmaker to craft a solid Irish Oak pen box. Oak, the "King of the forest", was the obvious choice for us as it represents Ireland's qualities. Like our wooden pens, each box is as unique as your fingerprints.

• Box Facts:
• Solid Oak
• Suitable for one or two pens
• Oak pen rests
• Engrave the inner lid with your message
• Add a logo to the inner lid
• We can also engrave the top of the box; just contact us to discuss your requirements
• 180mm long | 70mm wide | 50mm high | 220 gm | baize fabric lined base | antique brass hinge
• The box is wrapped in branded tissue paper and then wrapped in a recyclable card to protect it during shipping. This is a 100% environmental option for that exceptional pen gift box.

The pen pictured was handmade by us; your pen will be of the same wood, as no two pieces are the same. That is your certainty that your pen will be unique. Like the pen pictured, we will select the most exciting wood to craft your pen from. It takes us about three days to prepare a pen.
