ABSTRACT
Looking for that perfect gift for a hard-to-buy-for person? Especially for that guy or gal who has everything or doesn't give up any clues on what (s)he wants?
This particular keychain is nifty because it looks like a gear or a steering wheel, perfect for the engineer or car enthusiast in your life.
Let me create a custom keychain (or key fob for those of you in Europe) with any word, name or short phrase!
It could be your family's last name, a favorite band or sports team, or your child or pet's name. Or some word or phrase that you use all the time, or a private joke. The possibilities are endless!
You *could* also wear this yourself as a pendant or use it for your child's backpack or as a zipper pull, with whatever text you want on it. Let's work together to create the design.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A gear shaped piece of copper is hand stamped with steel stamps, filed to remove sharp edges, then oxidized and polished to bring out the letters and make them easier to read from a distance. The metal is hammered for strength and will not easily bend. The finish on these tags is brushed.
The tags measure approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter.
I will contact you to verify the design requested. I'll make your tag once I have received confirmation that you're happy with the layout.
NOTES
I combine shipping on keychains, so there's only a small additional charge if you order multiple items to be shipped to the same address.
If you'd like a cord to wear it on, I can make you a copper chain or a black leather cord necklace for a small additional charge. Let me know and I'll send you an invoice for the additional cost.
If you're interested in a larger square or rectangle shaped tag that will fit up to 5 lines of text, please see the pet tag listings and my other keychain listings. I can make those as keyrings, pendants or backpack tags as well - they don't have to be just for pets!
Each tag is made to order, so please consult my Shop Policies to see what the current shipping time is:
