Brass on mahogany is a classic look, evocative of our seafaring history; throw in some well worn leather and I think you have a beautiful combination. Add to that the knowledge that these tape measures have had a long life measuring out the long jumps and javelin throws of British youth, and you have a beautiful and evocative addition to your home. Of course the actual tapes don't go to waste, as can be seen from my door screens.

Full description
For the busy household a very substantial piece indeed, and absolutely unique: this rack for keys, letters, maybe even utensils and condiments, is crafted from a solid block of reclaimed Brazilian mahogany, into which I have embedded five winding mechanisms from old tape measures (the kind the PE staff would bring out on sports day) with their original leather surrounds, to create a characterful and distinctive piece of retro home furnishing that will be a talking point for all your guests. Attached to the top is a lipped shelf for letters or larger items such as phones and wallets, and I have used mirror slots as a hidden fixing. Clear wax finish, L 300mm x H145mm x D 70mm.
Designed by Neil Sinclair in Manchester
