Stria is an elegant folding ruler. It is highly engineered to be an unceasingly intuitive and cherished tool. Featuring both imperial and metric on either side, Stria is perfect for every creative.


Stria is inspired by the Dovetail Joint. Its form is designed for all surfaces. Folded or open, Stria will always settle neatly as you write, measure, or cut. When extended, it lies 30° on your page for ultimate ergonomic readability.


Stria consists of two arms that pivot around a dovetail joint. The joint is engineered to be ultra-durable. It includes a high tolerance wedge which incorporates grub screws to adjust the friction within the hinge. This allows you to set the perfect resistance for your very own Stria. Tightening the wedge is done with the very special thumbscrew which has an extra secret feature.


Stria is elegant, durable, and gratifying. It’s versatile mechanism makes it perfect for sketching or drawing either at home, in the studio, or on the go. Stria builds from the ruler’s time honoured simplicity. It seamlessly measures from edge to edge in metric and imperial.


Item is brand new. As you can see from the pictures the brass has changed colour slightly. Not sure if it just needs a polish or is part of the manufacturing process but it just adds to the charm.
