About hazelnuts
Our key ring is a realistic depiction of a hazelnut. The hazelnut comes from the common hazel and is one of our most nutritious nuts. It is appreciated by many animals such as squirrels, jays, and nuthatches. They are often hidden and stored as winter food.
Keyrings–Personal Accessory and Lucky Charm
Decorative keyrings are thought to be an extension of lucky charms and amulets, such as lucky rabbit feet from various cultures or scarab beetle amulets from ancient Greece that symbolised existence, progress, and effectiveness. When Frederick J. Loudin invented the keychain fastener in 1894, it didn’t take long for the two concepts to combine.
Today, vendors in tourist destinations worldwide sell keyrings as souvenirs, and they are likewise popular as giveaways in marketing campaigns. However, they have also become accessories that reflect an individual’s style, taste and personality.
