Greetings my friend!
I think clasping the hands like that is a sign of respect and gratitude.
Regarding your pens, a stationery company donated boxes of pens to us and I remember that some of the pens looked identical to the ones in this post. But we gave all of the pens to a poor creche for the children to play with. Don't laugh, or groan.
Only now in this excellent drawing do I realize what the pens were meant for. Ouch!
Blessings!
Congratulations to your friend @scrawly
Hi hi, you also are somewhat familiar with these pens? Haha, what are the chances! So cool that they are known everywhere in the world :)
Thank you for visit and comments! :D
Not too familiar with them my friend as only now do I know what their use is. Especially in arty hands like yours!
Blessings!
