Its deeply etched barrel is reminiscent of the ornamental bronze-colored metal lattice that covers the outside of the National Museum of African American History and Culture building in Washington D.C.. Lead designer David Adjaye pays homage to the intricate ironwork crafted by enslaved African Americans in Louisiana, South Carolina, and elsewhere through the use of this design. Each rollerball pen is numbered on the top ring and complete with matte black nickel accents and loaded in a commemorative Smithsonian NMAAHC tube.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe National Museum of African American History and Culture is the only national museum devoted exclusively to the documentation of African American life, history, and culture. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this pen will support and further the Museum's educational mission on what it means to be an American, and to share how American values like resiliency, optimism, and spirituality are reflected in African American history and culture. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRetractable rollerball with patented knurl twist-top mechanism\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 126 mm \/ ~5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter: 11.9 mm \/ ~0.5\"'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 29 g \/ ~1 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRefillable with \u003cem\u003eRetro 1951 Tornado rollerball refill\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Darkness of finish may vary from pen to pen*\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.lemurink.mom\/collections\/retro-51\" title=\"Retro 51 Pen Collection available from Lemur Ink\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eSee the rest of Retro 51 pens available from Lemur Ink\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Retro 51","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":20398510211183,"sku":"SRR-1818K","price":45.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1397\/3773\/products\/NMAAHC_Corona_Pen_Silo.jpg?v=1552680384","url":"https:\/\/www.lemurink.mom\/products\/retro-51-tornado-rollerball-pen-smithsonian-corona","provider":"Lemur Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
