Bog Oak is a rare and unique material, prized for its beauty, depth of colour, and durability. This ancient oak has rested for thousands of years underground or at the bottom of rivers, preserved in oxygen-free conditions three to seven metres deep. Over time, tannins in the wood react with iron salts, giving Bog Oak its distinctive dark tones, hardness, and extraordinary longevity.
Perfect for turning one-of-a-kind pens, these blanks offer unmatched character and history in every piece.
