Detail
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 is a retractable rollerball which 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. There is a knurled metal twist-action button at the end, to extend the tip, 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 either a liquid ink or ballpoint refill.
