Octopus Glass Dip Pen
The Octopus Glass Dip Pen captures the whimsy of the sea in a small, hand-sized form. A vivid blue body evokes deep ocean waters, while a bright pink octopus—with golden eyes and curling tentacles—rests playfully on top. The softly textured surface adds a sense of motion, like gentle waves under sunlight.
Delicately handcrafted using traditional Japanese burner work, this glass dip pen is both a functional writing tool and a delightful piece of art. It also comes with a wooden stand that lets you display it securely and keeps it from rolling off your desk. Whether you’re journaling, writing notes, or pairing it with your favorite Japanese stationery, it brings a splash of personality to your desk.

Where Glass Dip Pens Become Tiny Living Creatures
Minoru Kojima studied crafts at Tama Art University, one of Japan’s top art schools. In 2018, her graduation project, “Glass Creatures,” featured animals in tiny clothes. Each had its own personality and story.
When working at the torch, she enters an imaginative world—like a child playing with toys. Through the focused dance of flame and glass, she brings each creature to life.
Her glass dip pens feature a range of animals, from dumbo octopuses and frogs to geckos, insects, and birds. She aims to create pieces only she can imagine, shaped with a unique sense of charm.
Minoru’s pens are made to be written with—and admired. Each one brings joy, whether in use or quietly resting on your desk. We’re proud to share the work of such a talented young artist.
