The new Caran d'Ache Ganesha pen is a gaudy homage to the divine. Of course, using gods as inspiration is nothing new to Caran d'Ache, who also released limited-edition pens under their Artiste Collection that featured Lord Shiva, among others.
Jeweler Edouard Jud collaborated with Caran d'Ache on the Ganesha pen. The fountain or ballpoint pen is made of solid silver with gold accents and a ruby cap. There are only 101 Caran d'Ache Ganesha pens available and each is individually numbered.
