The Barneys New York ‘Paperclip Money Clip’ builds on a school theme, with a new luxurious twist. The authentic paper clip has been a go-to for students and office employees alike, and are generally sold in bulk at a low price. This take on the paperclip is being sold on the market for $85 US, in part due to its sterling silver structure.
The 3.5” x .5” design is meant to accommodate dollar bills and bank cards, and those who are willing to make the investment will need to possess one or the other. This coiled style has yet to be seen among money holder styles, and furthers the uncommon nature of this school supply-turned-cash-holder motif. The Barneys New York brand has yet again proved its affinity for opulent wares.
