Paper Weight

Walnut-sized brass paperweights with a crude casting surface, which fit comfortably in your hands.
As all faces are parallel, you can easily hold it between the tips of your first two fingers.

These are polyhedral brass objects, available in three types:

Triangle, Square, Rhombus

The surface of the paperweight is IHADA (brass crude casting surface)-finished. The IHADA paperweights gradually change its color over the course of years due to oxidization. The longer it is used, the richer and subtler it becomes.
