Daruma Action Pen

After 400 years, Daruma dolls are as much part of Japanese identity as the masterpieces of Hokusai and Utamaro. But it isn't about the papier-mâché dolls themselves anymore: you can get Daruma-inspired objects all over Japan, and sometimes really imaginative ones. The 165 x 32 mm (6.5 x 1.3") Daruma Action Pen is one such example, taking the image of Daruma and adding it to a regular ballpoint pen so you can always have your lucky charm with you! The top of the Daruma Action Pen is a miniature Daruma doll, rendered in the traditional red or gold. Every time you press the pen clip, the face of the Daruma changes: in the red one, the second eye gets painted (which means that your wish has come true or you have achieved your goal), while with the gold one, both eyes are painted and Daruma's usual grumpy face changes into a laughing one! Add a fun touch to your desk with this quintessentially Japanese pen!
