As Retro 51 puts it, 'Life is too short to carry an ugly pen'. And we agree. Their bright colours and cool designs have more than a hint of nostalgia about them, and all their pens are made with good old-fashioned values in mind.
The Vintage Metalsmith features a lacquer-coated steel barrel in a range of unique throw-back designs, this one being an homage to American abolitionist Harriet Tubman, an escaped slave who was instrumental in helping other slaves gain their freedom. The design reproduces the pattern on Tubman's headscarf and the finial features her portrait. Comes with a highly polished stainless steel nib and a slotted metal pocket clip. It's supplied in a vintage-themed cylinder which doubles as a pen stand as well as a protective case.
Refill with international standard sized cartridges or use a converter for bottled ink.
Orders placed before 3pm Monday to Friday will normally be sent out the same day.
FREE Royal Mail Standard delivery for orders over £100, and just £3.50 for smaller orders. Royal Mail Priority is available as an option, for £3.50 on orders over £100, £5.50 on smaller orders. Express available for £9, or FREE with any order over £400. No delivery surcharges for Northern Ireland, Highlands & Islands or anywhere else!
International deliveries vary in cost, so you'll need to add the items you want to your basket, and enter the checkout to see the options for delivery. Prices and payment methods will reflect your country, and many countries have all taxes and duties included to make things easier and more predictable.
For all orders outside the UK, heavy orders may cost more to send, but the shipping cost will be displayed in the checkout before you commit.
