Shopping: Money Clips

By staff

There are as many different kinds of money clips as there are people needing to bind their money together, and all are highly popular. You really can’t go wrong with your choice in the money clip area. Money clips handed down from grandfather to son are the best, but there are very popular money clips on the market now which are made in the likeness from everything from monopoly money to gold engraved bar clips to pictures of your kids on them. Titanium and sterling silver, rather than gold, are more popular today, and titanium over all.

money clipsAlso popular is the rubber band style of money clip, which stretches to hold several credit cards and bills. They have a flat surface across the front, which can have an emblem or an engraving on it. Engraving, by the way, is making a comeback.

A century ago, before we could call, beep, page, fax or e-mail someone, people actually wrote letters to each other. They also engraved the jewelry they gave to each other. It could be as simple as a locket containing a photo and a touching inscription professing one’s love for the other. Giving an engraved money clip is a nice old-fashioned way of telling someone you’re thinking of them which is very much back in fashion.

For the new generation of fashion conscious twenty-something, pictures are no longer for lockets and charm bracelets. The popular rubber band style money clips have the wide plate across the front, which is perfect for adding a special picture to personalize it. Masculine money clips with monogrammed initials are also making a comeback, whether in silver or gold.

Today, every jewelry design store also sells money clips, and there is no especially fashionable brand name for money clips that stands out. Handmade engraved money clips can be also found at online stores, or your local custom jewelers shop. Money clips range from $20.00 to over a $1000.00, depending on the style, material, and engraving, and the price is not going to be as impressive as how much you still have clipped in there when you pull it out.

If you want to buy money clips online you can’t go wrong with distinguished money clips styles at store Gioie.it - Italian Jewels Online.

Another good option would be to search from many styles available at Amazon.com: money clips.
