Brass Key-Shaped Wall Mounted Key Holder loomed textile a mother and childThis vintage brass keyholder has seen some use; I purchased it right off the wall of an antique shop going out of business, and clearly it had been there a very long time. It definitely has a few dark spots but I've not tried to polish it as I really like it just the way it is. Hang it near the entry to home or business; it does a great job asserting itself as the place to hang your keys! 13 1 2" long x 4" tall x 1 3 8" deep.
