Lovely patina
The color is rich and deep. It arrived well-packaged with no scratches. It takes a moment to get used to the shape for resting larger brushes, but for standard calligraphy brushes, it is ideal.

Solid and stable
Unlike lighter resin versions I have owned before, this solid brass piece does not slide around on the desk. The ruler markings on the side are a nice bonus feature that I actually use frequently.

Exquisite craftsmanship for my calligraphy desk
This brass deer is absolutely stunning. The weight is perfect for holding down rice paper, and the grooves on the back hold my brushes securely without damaging the bristles. It adds such an elegant touch to my study room.

Beautiful but smaller than expected
The detail on the deer is incredible, and the antique finish looks very authentic. I deducted one star only because it is slightly smaller than I imagined from the photos, though it still functions perfectly as a pen rest.

A true scholar's treasure
This item exudes quality. The casting is clean with no rough edges. It has become the centerpiece of my writing station and inspires me every time I sit down to paint.

Perfect gift for art lovers
I bought this for my father who practices Chinese painting daily. He was thrilled with the quality and the symbolic meaning of the deer. It serves as both a functional tool and a beautiful ornament.
Q: Is the brass coated or is it solid metal throughout?
A: This pen rest is made from solid brass with an applied antique patina finish for aesthetic appeal. It is not plated over a cheaper core material.
Q: Will this tarnish over time, and how do I clean it?
A: Like all brass, it may develop a natural patina over time. To maintain the current finish, simply wipe it gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid harsh chemical polishes.
Q: Does the ruler measurement use inches or centimeters?
A: The ruler markings engraved on the side of the base are in centimeters, which is standard for traditional Chinese painting tools.
Q: Is the bottom felted to prevent scratching my wooden desk?
A: Yes, the base includes small felt pads on the feet to protect your furniture surface from scratches and ensure stability.
Q: Can this hold multiple brushes at once?
A: Yes, the design features gentle contours along the deer's back that can comfortably support two to three standard calligraphy brushes simultaneously.
