THE STORY
This collection of limited-edition writing instruments honours the unique legacy of writer Robert Louis Stevenson, essayist, poet, travel writer, and iconic novelist.
Stevenson helped to shape not one, but two genres of fiction. Firstly, with his classic novel “Treasure Island”, his wild imagination gave readers their first real taste of adventure fiction. Then, not three years later, he ventured into gothic fiction with “The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde”, a book that defines the genre for many.
Still widely read and constantly adapted for stage and screen, his work remains a cornerstore of literature.

Limited Edition
The shape of the writing instrument is such that it is reminiscent of an old-fashioned extendable spyglass that evokes Stevenson's adventurous maritime and pirate stories
The duality of human nature described in Stevenson’s works is symbolized in the Writers Edition by an engraving of the line “Under the wide and starry sky”, written in mirror writing on the platinum-coated cap top ring. This is the first line of Stevenson’s poem ‘Requiem’, immortalized on his tomb.
Vertical lines that bring to mind the planks of the schooner Hispaniola and a traditional sea chest adorn the cap of the Writers Edition. The cap ring features a reproduction of the author´s signature as well as ‘1866’ – the year of Stevenson´s first (privately printed) publication: The Pentland Rising: A Page of History, 1666. Stevenson's life dates (1850 - 1894) are engraved on the back of the cap.
Referencing Robert Louis Stevenson’s passion for seafaring and his decision to settle in the South Seas, the handcrafted, rhodium-coated, solid Au 750 gold nib is engraved with fine wave-like lines and the title given by the Samoans to the great writer and world traveler: ‘Tusitala’ - which translates as ‘teller of stories’.
Limited edition of 1883 pieces
