About the TOOLS to LIVEBY Owl Brass Paper Clip

As the paper clip industry expanded in the early 20th century, inventors raced to design the ultimate paper-binding shape. The legendary Owl Paper Clip, originally granted its patent in 1908, emerged as a triumph of precision and symmetry. Engineered with a beautiful, balanced aesthetic, it provides an optimal grip while remaining elegantly compact.

TOOLS to LIVEBY has reached into the historical archives to resurrect this 1908 masterpiece. Moving away from modern disposable steel, they have forged the Owl from premium, uncoated solid brass. By utilizing a slightly thicker wire gauge and meticulously fine-tuning the century-old proportions, they have created a high-end clip that holds papers perfectly and firmly without ever leaving damaging indentations or marks on your delicate stationery.

The Beauty of Raw Brass:

  • A Living Finish: Crafted from unplated raw brass, these clips arrive with a stunning, bright golden luster. With handling and time, the metal will naturally oxidize, developing a rich, personalized antique patina that tells the story of your daily workflow. (Note: To easily restore its original bright luster at any time, simply wipe the metal with a dry cloth and a small drop of brass/copper polish).
  • Vintage Slide Box: Each set of 10 clips is nestled beautifully into an emerald green, archival-style paper slide box. Adorned with premium turn-of-the-century black typography and gold foil-stamped elements, it is ready for luxury gifting or immediate desk display.
  • Mark-Free Organization: The Owl's carefully calibrated curves and thicker brass construction mean you can secure your documents or use it as a planner bookmark without worrying about creasing the pages.
