Reviews

"Love Retro 51 pens! And I couldn't resist adding to my collection, especially the Rescue collection. These pens are always more detailed than they appear in pictures (like the raised honeycombs, or the subtle shimmer of honey filled nodes), and the materials are always high quality."

Gorgeous and shiny pen, and helps saving bees!

"What a gorgeous pen! I bought it because I like Retro 51 pens a lot (I have a couple already, and they are great writers), and I liked the bees design. I wasn’t prepared for how amazing it actually is! Such a shiny pen, and the honeycomb is enhanced by gold-like copper accents. The pen sits well in my hand, and it is a pleasure to write with it. And I love that a portion of the proceeds from the sale goes to a honey bee habitat nonprofit organization."
