Brass Tape Dispenser - Large

Oji Masanori for Futagami

• Introduction

  I am a Large Brass Tape Dispenser. See no end in sight? Things can get sticky, but you can always rest on me.

   

• Curator's Notes

   

  Creating a special design is hard to accomplish with common objects but Oji has managed to take the concept of an ordinary tape dispenser and make it into a display worthy piece. This object is remarkably striking in brass and it's substantial weight makes pulling tape on a daily basis a breeze.
