If you’re a very very serious person in a very very serious type of job, then this rather expensive desk set will look suitably professional and impressive. Personally I can’t imagine blowing $500 on a desk set, but then I’m not a lawyer or politician.

I don’t actually have a business card, but now I want one! This card holder is so beautiful that if I had it on my desk, I would probably just sit gazing at it all day and not get any work done.
