From stainless steel money clips to your most elaborate vision

A plain stainless steel money clip is straightforward factory work - clean lines, minimal tooling. A fully custom money clip with foil / hot stamping across a genuine leather wallet-style construction is where our production team earns its keep. The elaborate end is the norm for most brands we work with, not the exception.
