Teamwork Keys

From Top to Bottom:

A. True antique "tri-flora" key, with tightly wire-wrapped variety of glass, resin, a polished semi-precious jasper stone.  The colours all together are grey, black, & orange. The cord is a soft comfortable black suede, (something I rarely have or use).
I've worn this one the most, (maybe 6 times) because it is the original in the series, and I've received quite a few compliments!

B. True antique "open oval" key, with tightly wire-wrapped variety of glass, resin, and several semi-precious stones of jade & aventurine.  The colours all together are mostly shades of green. The cord is a super soft comfortable green silk. 

C. True antique "squared" key, with tightly wire-wrapped variety of glass, resin, and several semi-precious stones of malachite & a variety of jasper (which does come in multiple). The colours all together would be considered a a variety, and I suppose might be thought to go with more "outfits" (or if you're like me, you don't mind a necklace that stands out, on the other hand).
The cord is a super soft comfortable black silk.


What's true about ALL of them.
1. They are all tied at a longer semi-fixed length, between 25 to 26 inches. They should go just easily over the head, but they are not super long. They could be tied just a bit longer- material was left, just in case.  I could customize them for much shorter lengths, using more materials for creating clasps if wanted. The style was simply originally intended to be long. But I'll do whatever for the animals.

2. Each of these particular antique keys were valued at approximate $8.00 USD, still due to the various stones used, & number, the price of each will differ, but not a whole lot.

3.  Other antique keys shown in photo are NOT for sale. I like keys- I have other keys in jewelry, most of which are NOT antiques, as I like all keys and the different things they can symbolize- but as I used to collect antique keys, I can't use most of them in jewelry making, such as the ones shown here, because their value would make the pieces I would create, too expensive, and I don't want to make pieces that most people cannot afford.


So, that's basically it, except to say...
THE IDEA BEHIND The Teamwork Keys is to represent that the key to do anything of worth and value, is that most of the time, it cannot be done alone, that it DOES take a TEAM, of interested caring people. The key represents this fact, and the beads and gemstones represent the individuals WHO are indeed a PART OF THE TEAM!! If you like to be unique, or KNOW someone who does, and would like to wear something that represents this concept, which would contribute to this teamwork cause of seriously helping out animals in need, then this might be for YOU!

  Remember, as per "The Shelter Project"
I can make you sets of stationery with ANY of my images,
from any of my galleries, for you, or, as gifts for others. Of course I can make prints, too.
I can also make you stickers, magnets, mugs, T-shirts, ... just ask... !!!

And then there's the jewelry line:

Check
out the sub-gallery of pieces NOT yet sold, or get ideas from what has
sold, or feel free to email me about what ELSE I may have... for I have
MANY more pieces of jewelry not even uploaded yet to dA.

As Always, with ALL my works of Art, 30%
PROCEEDS go to ANIMALS of "THE SHELTER PROJECT"

the rest goes BACK to the project to keep it running... (I do NOT profit and I try not to lose either. )

Ooh!  Keys!  Those are lovely keys, Tea  What, pray tell, do they unlock?  (Perhaps you're not at liberty to reveal this.)  Must holders of the keys begin quests in search of receptive locks?  That could be fun!


👍: 0 ⏩: 1

TeaPhotography In reply to LayaboutJoe [2016-02-29 01:05:22 +0000 UTC]

Joe! What fun adventures that could take me on! I do not know the answers to most of the keys... though I used to keep track of what some old family keys DID unlock, that I came into possession of, but I should have made written record... as I did not predict what would happen to my poor brain!
But such keys did become inspiration for other keys, keys as gifts, mysteries of keys, and such fun of stories... I dare say, indeed!

LayaboutJoe In reply to TeaPhotography [2016-02-29 09:09:42 +0000 UTC]


I've a few keys, estivating in various boxes and drawers, whose purposes are lost to the ages.  It's a great tragedy, the ramifications of which may not be fully understood for several more millennia, that so many keys and locks have drifted apart over the years yet continue to pine in vain for happy reunions!  What to do?  Perhaps there should be an annual international ceremony during which various offerings, penances and prayers are sent via astral projection throughout the universe beseeching a miraculous grand reunion of all separated keys and locks.

Siobhan68 In reply to LayaboutJoe [2016-02-29 10:45:05 +0000 UTC]

That would be a grand idea! I have a few very old keys too and their matching keyholes are gone... old desks went to the garbage or broße, old boxes which simply vanished due to moving or a key to a very old barn, which is now gone, a new building standing there instead...

I'm glad you like the idea, Siobhan!  Let's plan a big international convention for sometime this coming summer, perhaps at Kyzyl in the Republic of Tuva.

Aw, that's really good to know, actually! And, the other good part is that they lay so well, that they don't turn, to reveal the wire on the backside!

Great feedback, thanks!

My pleasure. It is so cold outside. The temp is in the teens and there is strong winds and the sky is cloudy. I want to get back out to get photos. You know you are up early when all that is up is the early birds. Which for here is the sparse crow. They don't eat at our feeders.
