These silver watch keys were originally worn for a practical reason: to wind a pocket watch or a small clock. Today, they make lovely and interesting pendants.
This set consists of two keys: one in the shape of a Scottish thistle, the flower made from a fancy-cut yellow paste stone, the other key in the shape of a branch.
