What are those pens called with water and floating things inside ?

It's a biro type pen with fish or something inside, the bits float around in water in the body of the pen. I want to buy one as a novelty gift ? Can't find one anywhere. No idea what to Google only finding Pom Pom topped pens 😂

I think they're called 'floating' or 'floaty' pens.

I don't know but I bloody love them! Floating souvenir pens, I would describe them thus. I used to collect as a kid, as souvenirs from places visited.

Floating pens?

Put floating pens into amazon and you can buy them ‘empty’ to fill with your own choice of stuff!!

Me too, off to the sea side, much cheaper than Etsy.

How strange, i was just thinking of these yesterday, probably for the first time in 20 years!

We had one in the 70’s, a lady in a dress, when you turned her upside down the dress floated off and she was left in her undies. Killed me as a kid! Grin
