Featured Bronze Bird Note (?) Holder Desk Accessory

Has anyone seen something like this hinged, long-beaked bird that appears to be a desk accessory? Thumbing down the back of the head opens the long beak and clamps down hard on what is put into it. I'm guessing bronze on marble. I'm not a birder, so I don't know what bird it is supposed to represent. It's very cool though and appears to be from an earlier time. I'm guessing that because of the bottom, which has a thin protective surface and the fact that it evokes a time when paper rather than computers were the focus of a desk. There are no maker marks.
Can anyone help me with search terms? I really don't know what someone put into it to hold that wouldn't marred by the beak clamping down so hard. It is 5.5" long and 2" wide. I appreciate any help.

My goodness you found it already! It says Antique German paperclip. I wish it was still available, but at least I have some search terms now. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

 

This one is very similar. The difference is the base and the color of the eyes, but the head is very similar. They are saying Austrian, Late 19th Century.

Is there some letters here?
Also, you can take a flat mirror to look for marks maybe under beak and head feather.

 

Sorry, I don't have flat mirror but are you talking about these marks? The first two pictures are both of the sides, the third is the mount and the others are on the lower part of the beak. I'll have to wait until tomorrow to get a flat mirror.

 

It was where the base of the bird is attached to the marble. It looked more like lines. Maybe nothing.

 

I appreciate that very much. The three examples I've seen so far with your help haven't spoken to a maker's mark but I'm game to explore. I just don't own a flat mirror.

 

Know nothing..but really like it !!!

 

I couldn't wait to grab it as soon as I saw the worn spot on the back of the head. I knew it was going to be interesting. I got it home and started playing with it. It's much better than I originally thought.

 

Great looking piece! I’ve never seen that one. I see the one with the hand all the time, I like your bird better.

 

Thank you. I think it's quite nifty too.
