Upcycled timber, reclaimed from KFBG
Handcrafted with care by local studio CHICHOIMAO, this minimalist magnetic wooden photo clip is made from locally recycled timber supplied by Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden. Its design is both ingenious and deeply respectful of the natural world: the marble is already safely nestled within the wooden clip, requiring no extra assembly. Simply place a photo, heartfelt memo or postcard into the angled groove — and the internal marble responds to gravity, one of nature’s purest forces. Sliding gently downwards, it holds your memory securely in place. When it is time for a change, simply pull the paper out horizontally, smoothly and effortlessly.
Gravity, the same force that returns leaves to the earth
Gravity is the quiet power that guides fallen leaves back to the earth and the natural rhythm connecting all things under the sun. This photo clip turns that invisible natural force into a tangible warmth and everyday delight.
A magnet on the back allows the clip to attach effortlessly to refrigerators, metal pegboards or office lockers, bringing warm wishes, handwritten reminders and cherished photos into everyday life at home or at work.
Each piece honours the distinctive natural grain and rich tones of the recycled wood, nourished with safe, food-grade wood wax oil. Every corner is meticulously sanded by hand to achieve a rounded, velvet-smooth touch, showcasing CHICHOIMAO’s signature ethos: finding extraordinary detail within simplicity.
