Woodland Fountain Pen – Handmade from 5,000-Year-Old Irish Bog Oak with Gold Titanium & Rhodium Trim
Transport yourself through Ireland’s deep past with the Woodland fountain pen, handcrafted from ancient Irish Bog Oak and finished with elegant Gold Titanium and Rhodium accents. Each pen in the Woodland range is a tribute to Ireland’s heritage, designed to inspire creativity and offer a writing experience that becomes part of the owner's personal story.
Lightweight, well-balanced, and comfortable to hold, this pen reflects timeless design and exceptional craftsmanship. The combination of natural wood and precious metal finishes delivers a sophisticated aesthetic, making this pen the ideal gift for anyone who appreciates quality, history, and uniqueness.
The wood used in this pen is over 5,000 years old, predating the Pyramids of Egypt. Irish Bog Oak forms over millennia in the unique environment of Ireland’s peat bogs. There, the anaerobic conditions preserve the timber and deepen its colour into rich, striking tones. Finished with the same natural oils used by traditional Irish Bog Oak sculptors, this pen allows you to fully experience the wood’s texture, grain, and extraordinary origin.
Ink Compatibility & Writing Performance
The Woodland fountain pen is fitted with a precision-engineered, German-made medium steel nib.
Accepts international standard ink cartridges & converters.
Supplied with a black ink cartridge and reusable ink converter, it is ready for immediate use with both cartridge and bottled ink options.
Compatible Refills

Sustainable Writing, Thoughtful Gifting
Every year, billions of disposable plastic pens are discarded. This refillable, handcrafted writing instrument offers a sustainable alternative—while supporting Irish artisans and preserving traditional methods.
Personalised Engraving

Thank you so much, Orla! We’re delighted to hear that you’re enjoying the Woodland Fountain Pen in Bog Oak with Titanium Gold and Rhodium accents. It’s truly a stunning combination, and we’re so glad it met your expectations. We appreciate your support and look forward to assisting you again in the future! Richard
This is a really nice, handmade pen. It has a good weight in the hand & writes beautifully. It’s every bit as good as any pen costing twice or three times as much, with the advantage of having a little bit of Ireland at its heart.
Thank you Michael for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you're enjoying the weight and smooth writing of your handmade pen. Knowing it brings a bit of Ireland to your experience makes it even more special. Enjoy every moment with it! Richard
I got two fantastic pens made by Richard which I gave to two academic colleagues as gifts. I had two personalised "Woodland fountain pen in Bog Oak with Titanium Gold and Rhodium accents" made, and they were received extremely well by my colleagues. The pens add that personalisation from Irish Bog Oak that isn't available on other luxury pen websites. I had looked around online at the big names like Montblanc, Cross, and Waterman, but I actually felt that the pens by Richard at Irish Pens meant a lot more, and they have a handmade touch to it which adds so much to the pen when giving it as a gift.
I highly recommend anyone considering a high-end pen as a gift or even as a pen for yourself to get one from Richard and Catherine at Irish Pens. There really is a lot of heartfelt love poured into the making of the pen and it shows.
Jack thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that the Woodland fountain pens well so received by your colleagues.

Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we're grateful for your support. If you or your colleagues ever need anything else, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you again for choosing Irish Pens! Richard
I'm very satisfied with the quality of the pen overall. I am somewhat discontented, however, by the fact that I asked for a broad nib in the notes section of the pen and received a medium instead. It's something to bear in mind if you do not want a medium nib.
Hi Aodh,
Delighted you are happy with the pen, the nib is my issue, I was to send you an email to confirm that the pen is sold with a medium nib as standard however we can install other specialist size nibs we purchase from Peter Bock in Germany but there is an additional charge for that. I forgot to send that mail and that's on me. I will contact you to find a solution. We want to ensure all our clients are totally happy with the pens we craft. Richard
