The Desk Egg Paperclip Nest Provides a Cozy Organized Home

— February 26, 2013 — Art & Design
The Desk Egg Paperclip Nest provides a welcoming home for the common metal paper fasteners. In actuality, the paperclips become the home. The organizing stationery product may be shaped like an egg, but it in fact contains a strong magnet that attracts metal in such a way that they form cozy nest around it. Adorably charming, the Desk Egg Paperclip Nest adds a fun detail to office spaces both at home and work.

Created by designer Cheng-Tsung Feng and available at Fred & Friends, the Desk Egg Paperclip Nest is provided with a starter pack of 50 gold paperclips, which is perfect considering silver versions are much more prevalent. Made in China, the egg itself is fashioned out of ABS Plastic, which offers a clean and smooth case for the magnet.
