Key necklaces hold different significant meanings across various societies. Traditionally, some cultures view the key as a symbol of good luck. Others present a key necklace on a milestone birthday to symbolize the person’s maturity to unlock their future. In some cases, the key signifies metaphorically unlocking the mysteries of life and the universe. In essence, the key pendant necklace ultimately marks the hope for good fortune in one form or another.

Although a key necklace often serves as a stylish adornment to complement an outfit or other jewelry, it also holds significant meaning for the person who wears it and those who give one as a gift. Some types of key necklaces are meant to convey a specific meaning, while other styles have multiple traditional meanings tied to them.


A heart key necklace often comes with a heart-shaped lock on a separate chain. The gifter keeps the lock pendant to wear around their neck, then gives the key to a romantic partner to symbolize holding the key to the giver's heart. With or without the accompanying lock, the heart key's meaning remains the same.


A lock and key worn together on the same chain represents security. In modern times, people often give loved ones a lock and key necklace before moving or going on a trip as a token of safety and protection.


In many traditions, keys and key shapes are said to hold beneficial otherworldly properties. Designers on Etsy craft magical key necklaces with these attributes in mind. Depending on the maker's intention and the key's motif, a mystical key necklace might be offered as a wish for protection, good fortune, wisdom, or hope.


The easily recognizable form of a skeleton key often signifies spiritual protection or unlocking the mysteries of the universe. People often wear skeleton key necklaces as amulets for inspiration in their personal growth journeys.

As a stylish fashion accessory, a minimalist gold or silver key necklace is an elegantly simple choice to give a note of modest flair to any ensemble.


For the loud and proud who likes to be seen, a sizable diamond key necklace scales up the pizzazz of an evening or cocktail dress.


For a dark, mysterious vibe, consider an antique skeleton key on a silver or gold chain.
