Oceanus Brass Balls. Because if you had them, you wouldn’t need them. Inspired by the grit of old-world sailors, Oceanus Brass Balls are a tribute to those who didn’t just survive the unknown; they made it their home.
Machined from a block of solid brass, all Oceanus Brass balls are hand-polished, and of course, only shipped as a pair. They come in two sizes: 40mm for steady hands, 80mm for unshakable ones.
Make your point without saying a word. Oceanus Brass Balls don’t shout. They wait. They're weight you can feel when you're thinking through a tough call, a ritual object to center your focus, and a conversation starter when you want to break the tension. Whatever your ritual, make it yours.
Built to outlast the moment. Whether you pass'em down to someone worthy of the helm, or keep'em nearby to remind your crew who is steering the ship: there’s no wrong way to carry your Oceanus Brass Balls.
The Oceanus Brass Balls have been manufactured to thrive over decades of use, through all of the conditions you intend to throw them through. This metamorphosis from raw metal to a polished, functional tool encapsulates our labor of love and dedication.
Our products are steeply discounted off retail prices because we want to reward our very first customers. The opportunity to purchase a tool of this magnitude at this price is rare. With our finishing assembly, our master craftsmanship, the Oceanus Brass Balls, with your help, shall become an heirloom for you to pass down.
We stand behind the quality of our tools and the uniqueness and complexity of our hardware. Each piece has its own unique character that we hope will bring satisfaction at every moment.

With our design roots in Boston, our company draws creative inspiration from the hub of America’s rich nautical history. In developing our product, our original prototypes and inspiration came from the old shipyards of East Boston.
The nautically inspired Oceanus Brass Balls hark back to a time of adventure on open seas, its durability a testament to the harsh demands of that bygone era. Our hardware is tied to the art and science of sailing and exploration.
Inspired by nautical-grade hardware, the Oceanus Brass Balls are built to last. Perfect for the storied sailor, the intrepid adventurer, or anyone who values the extraordinary in every detail.
We launched Oceanus Brass because we wanted to share our nautically inspired tools with the world and turn an idea into action. A project that was both challenging and rewarding, the Oceanus Brass Balls are something we are very proud to share with you. We hope to encourage others to try their hand at something new, just as we did, to build something of their own, to go through that exploration process of learning and bringing inspiration to fruition. We owe a great debt of gratitude to the many relationships we’ve built along the way with industrial designers and manufacturers who helped us push the boundaries of what we were told was possible.
As with all campaigns, customs/duty fees are the responsibility of the backer. In the past, it hasn't been an issue, but with strange occurrences, we will do our best to support however possible.
