These keys were commonly used for early Japanese colonial and Republic of China era cypress wood wardrobes, chests, drawers, money boxes, etc. In addition to brass, the keys were also made of cast iron, or formed by folding sheet metal. These are genuine Taiwanese vintage pieces. Each key bears the marks of human use – rust, oxidation, and patina. The teeth are no longer sharp, softened by time and wear, giving them a smoother, more rounded shape that adds to their rustic beauty. This aged character is impossible to replicate. Beyond their function of locking and unlocking, these old keys truly speak to the stories and secrets of human connection behind them. Even across different times and spaces, holding an antique key in your hand, do you find yourself filled with boundless imagination? Do you feel a sense of nostalgia, transporting you back to savor that touching sentiment?
