To this day, the core of Ireland's heritage remains unmistakably Celtic, and it is fair to say that his pen will be an eagerly awaited gift honouring that heritage, pride, courage and values. The pen features intricate Celtic Knot scrollwork on the tip, tie clip and end, and an emerald colour cabochon on the cap. The Celtic Knot motif dates back to the 5th century and represents the truth of eternity and interconnected spirit. Your gift recipient doesn't need to be of Celtic origin to appreciate this pen; the symbolism of Celtic culture is universal.

This pen is made with Irish Grown Elm, a rare wood in itself, but we have taken this pen one step further by using BURLED Irish Elm. The Elm came originally from the midlands of Ireland; we got the wood from a clockmaker who retired and had lots of Elm over 30 years in his stores, too small for his work but perfect for our pens. Only a tiny proportion of the wood was burled, making your pen extra special, rare and unique also! The grain and colour of this wood are so beautiful; you could say that the patterns are manic, and nothing makes sense, and that is what makes it so rare and so different.

As a personal or corporate gift, no other pen is exactly like yours!

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 landfills every year.

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

Handmade 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; 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 special pen gift box.

The pen pictured was handmade by us; your pen will be of the same wood, as no two wood 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.
