Camel Keychain
Looking for something different but fun? Then check out my Camel Keychain.
Handmade from recycled aluminium, it gives road signs a second life through clean, contemporary design.
Featuring hand-stamped details, this camel captures my love of the weird and wonderful creatures we find in the world. It's the perfect addition to any set of keys or as an accessory on a bag.
Each one is hand stamped, hand sawn, and the edges filed smooth. The camel is then sanded to remove any imperfections or scratches, a hole is drilled at the top, and the burr removed, black sharpie pen applied and polished to a light shine. A keychain is then attached to the camel, and it's finished.
Made from recycled road sign aluminium, stainless steel keychain, and a sharpie pen.
This keychain is available in two sizes;
Short keychain: approximately 55mm tall x 20mm wide
Long keychain: approximately 80mm tall x 20mm wide
Jewellery Care:
Here are some ways to keep your camel keychain in great condition!
- Hold your camel by the edges or the keychain.
- Try not to touch the front of the camel if you can. The flat unstamped surfaces can become marked and scratched over time.
- Avoid getting them wet. It's best to avoid getting your keychain wet as the aluminium can discolour, and the sharpie pen can rub out over time.
- Keeping them clean... avoid using alcohol based products on your keychain. Use a microfiber cloth to polish them or if marked, use 1000 grit sandpaper and gently sand the front of the keychain to remove any finger prints or unwanted marks. Please note: once sanded, the front will be raw; so avoid touching the surface until air (oxygen) has started tarnishing it again.
- Store them safely. All Meekz Contemporary Jewellery comes in a gift box, which will keep your pieces clean and protected from the elements.
