Communist Keychain

4.77/5 · 213 customer reviews of our store

Communist keyrings you always carry with you

It is the smallest object in the catalogue and probably the one that gets the most use. A keyring is handled several times a day, gets noticed on a bar table, slips into a pocket without a thought. Our aisle gathers the great symbols in metal format: enamelled red star, cut out hammer and sickle, CCCP medallion, struck Soviet insignia, engraved portraits, rectangular plates engraved with slogans.

Solid metal, coloured enamel, leather or brushed steel depending on the model. It is also the easiest gift to give when you do not know somebody's clothing size.

Which communist keyring should you give?

If the person already owns plenty of militant clothing, a brightly enamelled keyring gets noticed immediately on a key ring. If they are more understated, a brushed metal medallion with no colour goes with everything and ages very well. Above all, check how sturdy the ring is: that is the part that fails first on a cheap keyring. Models with a thick ring and a snap hook hold a heavy bunch of keys far better.

What other small objects work in the same spirit?

Communist pins follow exactly the same pocket object logic, in a version you clip on. Embroidered communist patches play the same role on a bag or a jacket. For a slightly more substantial gift, communist flasks and communist mugs remain safe bets. The whole aisle is gathered on the communist accessories page.

Why the red star on a pocket object?

Because it stays legible even cut down to two centimetres, where a detailed portrait becomes unreadable. Its use as an emblem goes back a long way and its meaning has shifted several times. Our article on the meaning of the red star traces that journey.
