This is a pretty heart shaped keychain attachment made out of Gaboon Ebony (Diospyros crassiflora). This is one of the blackest ebony available. Hard, heavy wood that polishes up to a great shine. This is one deep, dark, enigmatic heart!

The heart was cut free-hand and then hand sanded to a smooth, contoured surface, with just an oil/wax finish. It is equipped with antique bronze hardware, ready to dangle. Due to this manual process, each heart is unique. Also due to this manual process, I do not offer hearts very often. It's too much exercise for me with all that sanding and polishing! But I know, a natural, simple, meaningful, unique heart is hard to find, so here is a collection for your Valentine. It is also good to carry a piece of real wood with you just in case you need to "knock on wood" to prevent jinxing yourself, since nowadays, with all those "alternative" materials, finding a piece of real wood could be a challenge. And, of course, it is a perfect gift for that special someone who hold the key to your heart!

Dimension (largest diameter x thickness): 1-1/4" x 3/8"
