As you know, a paper clip is a small office item.

The length of this device is usually several centimeters.

However, there are also huge paper clips in the world.

However, we are not talking about office supplies, but about art objects.

For example, in 1989, a seven-meter paper clip was installed in Norway. The unusual sculpture is located in the city of Oslo.

However, this is not the largest monument to the paper clip. In Russia, there is an art object that is even more impressive in size.

Monument to the paper clip in Russia

In 2010, an unusual monument was unveiled in the Russian city of Miass near Chelyabinsk.

The object is a giant paper clip made of steel.

The height of the paper clip is 9 meters 28 centimeters. The structure weighs half a ton.

The monument is located in a children's park, where other huge stationery items are also installed. For example, scissors and a drawing pin.

A year after the opening of the art object, the compilers of the Guinness Book of Records paid attention to it. The monument received the status of the largest paper clip on the planet.
