Retro 51 Tornado Rollerball Pen - Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde (Limited Edition)
"I learned to recognise the thorough and primitive duality of man; I saw that, of the two natures that contended in the field of my consciousness, even if I could rightly be said to be either, it was only because I was radically both... - Dr. Henry Jekyll
Step into the shadowed streets of Victorian London with Retro51’s newest Tornado™ Popper, inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson’s haunting tale The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde. This limited-edition rollerball captures the tension between refinement and chaos with a bold design: a neon green glow-in-the-dark barrel printed in glossy black illustrations, a reflection of the doctor’s polished exterior and the sinister figure lurking within. Stealth Black accents sharpen the mood, while the finial features the split personality of Jekyll and Hyde, capping the story’s theme.
More than just a writing instrument, this pen is a reminder of the dual forces we all carry—the balance of light and dark, order and temptation. Only 1031 pieces exist, each engraved on the top ring, and packaged in a matching collector’s tube worthy of this timeless gothic classic. Like Jekyll’s fleeting control, this edition shall not last long—claim yours before it vanishes into shadows.
Each Retro 51 Tornado twist-action pen comes loaded with a black rollerball refill that flows with a medium stroke and is individually numbered.
