It's not just a paperclip, its Prada.
This $185 Prada paperclip sold by Barney's New York is the latest in the list of extravagant things you will never need.
Okay, to be fair, it's not technically a paperclip, but a paperclip-shaped money clip.

The Prada "paperclip" is made in Italy, of polished sterling silver, measuring 6.25cm (2.4 inches) long and 2.25cm wide (0.8 inches).
By the way, if Prada's too mainstream for you, Barney's got other "paperclips" available too.
