Description
The Limited Edition long strap Keyring has a 45 cm strap for your convenience, and it easily holds 3-5 keys. We cannot guarantee that you will never forget your keys again, but with this beautiful object, it’s become a little easier.
The Keyring was our second venture away from boxes. We decided to craft a keyring because we, after making small boxes and notebooks, still had surplus materials that was too good to waste. With a keyring we stay true to our vision of making an object for every storage need you might have, and at the same time we use the surplus of the surplus materials.
This Limited Edition Keyring is made in collaboration with Thomas Lykke, Creative Director of OEO Studio, based in Copenhagen and Tokyo. With the Japanese connection in mind, Thomas has chosen – Starry – from Hosoo, whose history goes back to 1688 and Kyoto's textile district. Today, Hosoo is widely recognized for their exceptional skills within Japanese three-dimensional weaving, and the result of the collaboration is unforgettable. The Starry fabric on the exterior is a charcoal nishijin woven fabric with silver thread and the leather on the interior is semi-aniline OEKO-TEX leather, designed by Note Design Studio.

Material: Hosoo silk fabric and aniline leather
Colour: Exterior is black with silver threads and the interior is black
Production location: Handmade in Portugal

Cherish your precious belongings
It was during a personal search for storage solutions that the vision for August Sandgren originated. I, Pia, who directs the company, love a decluttered environment and I like it to be functional, high-quality, and aesthetic. I couldn’t find any storage objects that met all my demands. We discovered August Sandgren, and by integrating our vision with his unbelievable heritage, we believe we can create functional and aesthetic boxes, folders, and holders, which suits today’s world but rendered in a quality unparalleled by anyone other than traditional craftsmen.
We believe we succeeded, and fortunately, our customers agree.
Crafted by hand in the best available materials
Each August Sandgren object is crafted by hand in Portugal by a fourth-generation family of craftsmen. They are not only incredibly talented, but also very dear to us.
The leather and fabrics that we use are all sourced in Europe and from leading tanneries offering transparency; from the origin of the hide to their Oeko-tex certified tanning processes.
Today, most of our objects are crafted in surplus materials sourced from the world’s leading furniture and fashion brands – we are not only very proud to contribute to waste reduction, but also to work with a quality that does not get any better!
It is easy to keep your object beautiful
We craft our objects to last – both in their construction and in our choice of materials. The construction is perfected in every aspect to ensure that it lasts, and to a large extent, so will the leather. The leather will, however, patinate, which we believe is part of its beauty and a testimony to how natural a product we create. To maintain our objects in the best possible way, and to keep it moist, you should leave it out of direct sunlight and every couple of years, treat it with leather grease – just use a soft, clean, cotton cloth and a thin layer of grease, and that’s it!
Make it personal!
All our leather objects can be personalised with name or initials. It is a small addition with a huge and valuable potential for appreciation from the receiver – that person being yourself or someone dear to you.
Personalising your object is easy and only increases delivery time with a maximum of two-three days.
