Celtic pen in Irish Bog Oak with antique copper and pewter.
This Celtic pen has been handcrafted from a wonderful piece of Irish Bog Oak and combined with antique copper and pewter components to achieve a beautiful writing instrument. This pen is well-balanced in the hand and you will be looking for excuses to use it as every writing session will be a joy. The body has our signature Celtic band at the top of the grip section where it meets the ancient Bog Oak. This wood is between 4000-6000 years old.
Each wooden pen comes fitted with a Parker ink refill to give you a pleasurable writing experience. You can buy a new refill at any stationery store. The pen is well balanced so you can write for a long time with no stress. You will love looking at the grain patterns on the wood.
'Life is too short to use an ugly pen'.

***Irish Bog Oak***
Variations in the water level, floods, and marshes formation promote the growth of oak trees. Because of a continuous change of the direction of the river flow to a greater or lesser degree, the mainstreams weave through the valleys constantly forming live meanders. In its meandering course, the river undermines the banks covered with trees, which fall into the river and are swept away in the water. When the trunk gets trapped by its branches and roots in the river bed, over time layers of mud, sand and gravel cover it. Deprived of oxygen the wood undergoes the process of fossilization and a long process of morta formation.
During hundreds and thousands of years, under the influence of the minerals and iron from the water, the decomposition of oak timber is considerably slower. A special role is played by the currents of the underground waters in the creation of morta, binding its ingredients with larger quantities of the tannin in the wood and in this way darkening the wood. This centuries-long process, often termed "maturation", turns the wood from golden brown to completely black, while increasing its hardness to such a level that it can only be carved with the use of specially grind and exceptionally firm tools.
The time necessary for the oak to transform from the end of its biological growth to abonos varies. The "maturation" commonly lasts thousands of years. Due to the ecological reasons mentioned above no two trunks can be found of the same colour
