\(^_^)/ for Ginghami, who have taken the Asian art of emoticons and transferred it to the printed page. From sadness (;_;) to shock (O_O), the Kaoiru stamp can express a wide range of cute and cuddly Kaomoji feelings, lending added depth to your handwritten prose. Or something like that. Given the ever-quickening speed of digital communication, some might argue that the Kaoiru was obsolete before it was even conceived, but we’re rather fond of it all the same. After all, less haste equals more leisure to indulge in inky pleasure.
Kaoiru emoticon stamp, ¥2,700. For list of stockists see http://meturl.com/ginghami.
