The Golden Divider for Arts
The Golden Divider for Arts is a measuring, drawing and aiming instrument based on the Golden Number, i.e. on the proportions found in the human body and in nature.
With just one touch, you can lay the foundations for a complex regulatory layout: primary, secondary and tertiary golden lines, horizontally, vertically or diagonally. It can also be used to draw arcs and circles.
The specially designed notches at the tips of the branches allow you to draw circular arcs: one end of the Golden Divider for Arts is fixed to the plane by a point passing through the hole provided, and the notch at the other end allows you to insert a pencil lead and trace or mark.
Its right-angled opening reveals the five units of measurement emblematic of the construction of sacred buildings from Antiquity to the Middle Ages: palm, palm, yoke, foot and royal cubit.
The symmetrical design of the Golden Divider for Arts allows immediate visualization of proportions and avoids complex manipulations.
The Tracé Régulateur can be used to structure the sketch of a painting, an architect's plan, a garden plan or an artistic project. It's a plan drawn with a ruler and compass, which then becomes the visible construction plan.
These construction lines allow you to place your focal points in precise locations and avoid any framing errors. They provide harmony and balance based on measurements that are pleasing to the eye.
The elements of Golden Divider for Arts are made of 316L stainless steel. They are laser-cut and engraved. They are CNC-machined to a precision of less than 20µm. Flush rivets of the same metal, which cannot be dismantled, ensure the precision and longevity of the tool.
The calculated pressure of the rivets keeps the tool open at the desired angle.
The end of each arm can be used both to fix the tool with a point on a plane, and to mark or pencil with another arm thanks to the notch system.
This makes it possible to draw arcs and circles with radii ranging from 6 cm to 70 cm at most.
The symmetrical marking of the Golden Divider for Arts immediately identifies primary (0-1-1-0), secondary (0-2-2-0) and tertiary (0-3-3-0) ratios, horizontally, vertically or diagonally, whatever the format of your project.
The Golden Divider for Arts is inseparable from its cowhide leather case, which shelters and protects it, and whose cut-out loops enable it to be worn on the belt.
The Golden Divider for Arts thus becomes your most faithful companion, always at hand and always available when you need it. It's your pocket "Modulor "!
The tool and its case are delivered in a gift box stamped with its emblematic logo.
