A rectangular money clip that doubles as a card holder, this is a piece of everyday personal silver from Spratling's workshop, the kind of useful object the taller produced alongside its jewelry.
The plain rectangular form puts the quality of the silver and finishing entirely in the foreground, with function as the design.
Utilitarian silver of this kind is collected alongside Spratling's more decorative work, valued as an example of the breadth of objects the workshop made for daily use.
