What is the Sevivon
The Dreidel (Yiddish) or Sevivon (Hebrew), is a four-sided spinning top, with a Hebrew letter inscribed on each side. Assembling the letters you can have the sentence "A great miracle happened there" as well as "A great miracle happened here", referring to the miracle of the oil that took place in the Beit Hamikdash.
The small spinning top
in the pen's cap
features
another Delta collection:
Dreidel,
in limited edition. Some say the Dreidel game is played to commemorate a game devised by the Jews to camouflage the studying of the Torah, which was outlawed by the Greeks and the Romans.
This is the reason why it's a traditional play, specially on Hanukkah.
