The Met Store Retro 51 William Morris Blackthorn Rollerball Pen* Office

This elegant rollerball pen from Retro 51 features a detail from Blackthorn (1892), one of William Morris’s (British, 1834–1896) most iconic motifs. Morris believed that beauty, imagination, and order were the necessary components of a strong design. Perhaps best known for his wallpaper patterns, Morris frequently looked to the English countryside for inspiration.
