In a small post-town in Nagano Prefecture, Japan, Elyse discovered a shy shopkeeper with a quiet gift — she designs and handcrafts these tape measures entirely by herself, using wood salvaged from her local town.
Each piece is made from a single cut of wood native to Japan, and is perfect for the designer, architect, or everyday craftsperson who wants to carry something functional and beautiful — a small object that brings care and intention to every use.
These tape measures are marked in centimeters and extend to 210cm.

Hinoki — The Hinoki edition is made from the wood traditionally used for luxurious bathtubs, kitchenware, and temple spaces. Warm and pale in tone, it carries a distinctive fresh, citrusy, slightly sweet evergreen scent from its natural oils — one that lingers gently on the hands.
Each piece is unique, and distinct.
