Pastel pink and blue plush keychain

Two ways to clip this key ring on

The split ring holds house and car keys. The lobster clasp goes straight onto a bag handle, a belt loop or the zip pull of a rucksack. Both sit at the top of the strap, so you can leave the keys where they are and still unclip the whole thing in one move.

A 7 cm bear charm on an 11 cm key ring strap

The figure measures 7 cm by 3.5 cm and the strap adds 11 cm of reach. That extra length is what lets you fish a set of keys out of a deep bag without emptying it first. You will find more characters and cords in our key ring section.

What the charm and its strap look like

Pink covers the head and one leg. Sky blue runs across the ears, the body panel and the other leg, and the arms stay white. The ears are moulded as open rings rather than solid shapes, which opens up the outline of the head.

A lightning bolt on the chest, crosses for eyes

The bolt, the crosses and the small curved mouth are moulded, not printed. Each sits in the same tone as the panel behind it, so the detail reads as relief rather than as a drawing laid on the surface.

White lettering on a translucent pink ground

Lettering and diagonal hatching run the full length of the strap. A tab shaped like an envelope, closed with a gold-tone rivet, holds the strap to the ring.

Features at a glance

A quick dry for the ring and clasp

Wipe the figure with a barely damp cloth, then dry the ring and the clasp before putting them away. Standing moisture around the metal is what dulls this sort of finish first.
