Carl Auböck Large Paperclip Paperweight Staff_Ryan Taking inspiration from Japanese triangularCarl Aubck Large Paperclip Paperweight reinterprets a familiar everyday object at an exaggerated scale, transforming the simple paperclip into a functional desk weight. Cast in solid brass, the design retains the clarity of the original form while introducing a sense of weight and permanence. Produced in the Aubck workshop in Vienna, each piece is cast and finished by hand, resulting in a surface that carries subtle variation and tactile character.
