Description
This elegant gold and silver money clip is designed as stylized bamboo stems tied with a twisted gold cord. The refined interplay of textures and metals lends the piece a sense of natural strength and sophistication, characteristic of early 20th-century French craftsmanship and the emerging Art Deco aesthetic.
The clip was manufactured by LFV (Lasbleitz, Fournier, Vitello) on behalf of the legendary studio of René Boivin, whose signature it bears. Founded by René Boivin in the 1890s, his atelier established the creative and technical principles that would define its enduring reputation — expressive natural forms, architectural balance, and a subtle yet powerful elegance.
With a total weight of 13.06 grams and dimensions of 4.8 × 3 cm, this money clip besides being a refined accessory, is a collectible objet d’art. It embodies René Boivin’s artistic vision — a harmony of functionality, avant-garde grace, and impeccable craftsmanship.
