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 Retro Ink edition is a celebration of the Traditional American style of tattoo art, the classic style well all know, with hearts and anchors, names or 'Mum'. Limited edition of only 60 pens.

Supplied in a lovely card tube with matching pattern, that doubles up as a desk stand for your pen. Also includes a temporary tattoo, so your pen isn't the only one with ink, though the pen's ink should last longer.

Matching pen sleeve and notebook available separately.
