Curator's Notes 

A simple circle of Hender Scheme's classic raw leather provides the base for this key ring. Stiff and unblemished in its new state, it will soften with use and darken as the natural oils of your hand absorb into its surface, developing a patina as unique to you as your own fingerprint! Keys mount onto a wide ring which includes three metal attachments, to which more can be added as needed. The circle of leather folds in half and buttons shut to enclose your keys securely, preventing them from moving around, and also protecting your keys from scratching other objects in your bag.
