We have many numbers and colors currently in stock. Key chains in the photos are great examples; however, there may be even more color options available. Request your color in the buyer notes or convo us and we will send you options.
Key chain size varies per the license plate number. Generally, the key chains measure around 2.5" x 1.5", but the largest I have in stock is 3" x 1.5" and the smallest 2.5" x 1". Let me know if size is a concern.
Want a different number? Looking for a number from a certain state? Want a letter instead of a number? Just ask!
These key chains are made from vintage, retired, and found-alongside-the-road vehicle license plates, mostly from the state of Michigan. Each key chain comes with one key ring and a silver gromit to protect the number from wear and tear. Backs are left to show the natural license plate; some are silver and some are painted.
The numbers are sealed front and back to protect the paint from chipping, especially on those vintage plates that are in danger of giving up their colors. Rust is a natural part of the lives of these plates, so they, too, are preserved to create the unique, weathered look vehicles get here in the wintry north. The key chains are textured, but smoothed so they will not snag on clothing or fingers. Be aware that, though they are sealed, the numbers may scratch and distress with use.
Shipping to USA is by USPS with tracking. International customers, contact me for shipping cost.
