A clip for bundled articles, said clip comprising: a resilient clip body having a forward end portion, an arcuate rear portion, and a pair of lever contact zones disposed between said forward end portion and said arcuate rear portion, wherein said arcuate rear portion has a concave-inward shape and said forward end portion at least selectively defines an opening; an article-retaining chamber defined by said arcuate rear portion and said pair of lever contact zones; and a pair of lever arms coupled to said clip body and having respective distal end portions extending rearwardly in divergent directions beyond said arcuate rear portion of said clip body; wherein said lever arms contact said clip body along respective ones of said lever contact zones, and are operable to move said forward end portion of said clip body to an open configuration upon application of an inwardly compressive force to said distal end portions of said lever arms toward one another, and wherein said forward end portion of said clip body is resiliently biased to a closed configuration upon release of the inwardly compressive force, wherein said article-retaining chamber defined by said arcuate rear portion is in the shape of a horizontal cylindrical segment, wherein first inwardly-facing transition angles are defined between said arcuate rear portion and each of said lever contact zones, and wherein said first inwardly-facing transition angles are greater than 90°, characterised in that said clip body further comprises an angled clip body segment positioned forwardly of each of said lever contact zones, wherein second inwardly-facing transition angles are defined between each of said lever contact zones and a respective one of said angled clip body segments, and wherein said second inwardly-facing transition angles are greater than 90°. a resilient clip body having a forward end portion, an arcuate rear portion, and a pair of lever contact zones disposed between said forward end portion and said arcuate rear portion, wherein said arcuate rear portion has a concave-inward shape and said forward end portion at least selectively defines an opening; an article-retaining chamber defined by said arcuate rear portion and said pair of lever contact zones; and a pair of lever arms coupled to said clip body and having respective distal end portions extending rearwardly in divergent directions beyond said arcuate rear portion of said clip body; wherein said lever arms contact said clip body along respective ones of said lever contact zones, and are operable to move said forward end portion of said clip body to an open configuration upon application of an inwardly compressive force to said distal end portions of said lever arms toward one another, and wherein said forward end portion of said clip body is resiliently biased to a closed configuration upon release of the inwardly compressive force, wherein said article-retaining chamber defined by said arcuate rear portion is in the shape of a horizontal cylindrical segment, wherein first inwardly-facing transition angles are defined between said arcuate rear portion and each of said lever contact zones, and wherein said first inwardly-facing transition angles are greater than 90°, characterised in that said clip body further comprises an angled clip body segment positioned forwardly of each of said lever contact zones, wherein second inwardly-facing transition angles are defined between each of said lever contact zones and a respective one of said angled clip body segments, and wherein said second inwardly-facing transition angles are greater than 90°.
