I-Hada Sand Cast Brass Paper Weight, Rhombus
£65.00
Ex Tax: £54.17
A hand sand-cast brass paper weight from a foundry established in 1897 in the Japanese city of Takaoka in the Toyama Prefecture. With minimal chasing, the castings are left largely ‘I-hada: with a raw cast surface maintaining any texture or discolouration drawn from the sand into which they were poured — a manifestation of their solidity, manufacture, and also their uniqueness. Designed by Oji Masanori to produce modern ‘livingware’ using centuries old tradition and craftsmanship. Measures approximately 35mm x 35mm x 35mm.
Care Advice
Unlacquered brass will tarnish and develop a natural patina with time. If you wish to bring back its original shine a suitable metal polish like Brasso or Elsterglanz will do the trick — use according to instructions.
