Antique Brass Tree of Life Journal Clip — Large

A great tree, rooted and branching, cast in relief across a generous antique brass clip.

Every leaf of this Tree of Life is raised from the surface, from the twisting trunk and spreading roots at its base to the dense canopy that fills the round face. Behind it, two broad curved jaws open on a sturdy spring and close firmly over the edge of a notebook, a journal cover, or a stack of letters.

Large enough to hold an A5 notebook closed or keep a thick journal open to the right page, it is as much a desk object as a tool. Leave it clipped to the notebook you are filling, or let it rest on the desk among your pens and ink.
