For those of us who regularly tread Hong Kong Island's only road with "star quality", this coaster may look oddly familiar.
It is of course a genuine replica of the very plaque embedded in the manholes of Hollywood Road. The ones that are always missing. Pried loose as a memory, or simply scavenged for the metal itself.
So here's my homage to all those missing plaques. A coaster realised in solid brass, faithful to the original. Produced through lost wax casting and vibration tumbled to produce a softer look.
Note 1.) Any marks or slight discolouration is a natural side effect of the manufacturing and should not be viewed as flaws. These coaster will last for many lifetimes, with only the cork needing replacement.
Note 2.) To preserve the shiny brass finish please wipe down the coaster periodically with linseed or mineral oil, using a microfibre cloth. This will prevent oxidation. Please avoid wiping the cork excessively with oil.
