Lue Brass 5inch Ruler #28 is handcrafted by Japanese metalworker Ruka Kikuchi. A beautiful, yet practical with its engraved script style numbers and beautiful brass finish will make a charming addition to your desk. With time it will patina and darken as the metal oxidises, also reacting to the natural oils on ones hands. Each is unique, featuring little scratches up-close where the craftsman has been at work. Made to last for many years to come. Made in Okayama, Japan. .
