Simple, playful and purposeful design here, by Tom Pigeon. This 15cm solid brass ruler grabs inspiration from school woodwork classes, and traditional tools. Crafted up in the West Coast of Scotland, and designed to age over time. Nothing groundbreaking, but then, a ruler doesn't need to be.
Enjoy the weekend, folks! After a hectic week I'm looking for nothing more than a quiet chill.

That is the most beautiful ruler I have seen. Sometimes the simplest items are the most beautiful. And I love that instagram account - it's so satisfying!

I love Tom Pigeon's prints! Wish I could use the ruler, too bad we're inch and feet based in the U.S.!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever actually wanted a ruler as much as I want this one. Great find! ps. Hollie looks fantastic! Such a fun post.
ReplyDeleteThe also did a copper one but that sold out straight away. And ditto, it's so nice looking. Cheers for the Hollie feedback!
