Handcrafted Nautical Decor - Solid Brass Dolphin Key Chain 4"

As a symbol of good luck and fortune since ancient times, humans have always had a deep connection with dolphins, one that is shared with few other species. Capturing the natural beauty and grace of this animal, and combining it with a token of luck, these wonderful brass key chains will bring a smile to your face. In early Greek mythology it was said that the god Dionysus, when captured by a band of pirates, turned them into dolphins as they dove into the sea to escape his wrath. Often pictured in stunning works of art throughout the Mediterranean, such as 16^th century BC frescoes of Knossos, Crete, these delightful animals are once again brought to life in these brilliantly fashioned brass key rings. Across the globe dolphins have amazing histories with countless cultures; in India dolphins are considered as heralds to the goddess Ganga, and in other parts of the world some tribes even claim to be descendant from them. Here their mystical beauty is transposed in shining perfection on each of these brass key chains. Mythology aside, these playful mammals have been long considered by sailors as a friendly presence, gliding in the wakes of traveling ships, and the dolphins on these brass key chains will be a constant reminder of one of nature’s most magnificent animals. Hang your keys from these sturdy brass rings and enjoy the warmth of one of the sea’s most enchanting creatures and enduring symbols.
