This charming yellow wooden folding ruler features multiple hinged sections with metal joints and black graduated measurement markings. The articulated design allows the ruler to fold compactly or open into different shapes—including the fun fan-style display shown in the photos.
Originally made as a practical measuring tool for carpentry, woodworking, and construction, these old wooden rulers have become wonderful pieces for vintage farmhouse and primitive décor. Tuck it into an old stoneware crock, wooden toolbox, basket, or shelf vignette for an easy pop of warm mustard yellow and authentic utilitarian character.
