This sleek ruler was originally produced by New York based Canetti Design Group in the 1980s. Newly reissued as part of their 40th Anniversary collection, the design is equally relevant and useful today. Constructed of crisply detailed solid steel, it has a satisfying weight and heft that keeps it from sliding while in use, yet the standing center edge makes it easy to pick up and move as desired. The satin matte black finish features contrasting white markings in both Metric and Imperial scale. Beautifully made, it makes for a useful desktop tool and design object in one.
