At the origin... of the Keys

Les Clés Rouge et Blanc_Chardon Paris

What could be more boring than a key ring? Nothing on the surface. On the face of it, everyone has one, no one talks about it, it's not really a topic. And yet! How can we explain the fact that we can spend up to two and a half hours a month looking for our belongings, including our keys, which rank first among these lost objects?

The numerous testimonies of the women interviewed also revealed that each one had a personal trick to find her sesame at the bottom of her bag (aggregating huge key rings, attaching her keys to a string, shaking her bag to find them when she makes a noise, etc.). All these stories reinforced the idea that where there was a system D, there was necessarily a product to offer...

Chardon Paris is committed to reinventing everyday objects to make them beautiful to look at and ultra-functional to use. To this end, we have created the Keys.

Les Clés is much more than a key ring. The idea was to respond to a need: to easily find your keys, while offering a robust and beautiful product, resulting from the know-how of luxury leather goods with ultra-polished finishes.  

Every detail has been thought through to create the ideal key ring:

A protective bell: The leather-lined bell not only protects the keys, but also prevents them from scratching your phone or getting tangled up with your headphone cord. Everything stays in its place.

A life-saving carabiner ring : to hang and unhook one or more keys without difficulty, and above all without damaging your nails.

Clever little links: On the ring, your keys are connected by small flexible links so that they lie flat in the bell that houses them.

Always at hand: Thanks to the leather strap that you can pull on to find your keys in a few seconds. A new gesture you won't be able to do without!

 The Art of Detail We have sought to create elegance in the smallest details of Chardon Paris objects: the contrasting dyeing of the edges, handmade for greater precision, the precision of the stitching, the carabiner ring engraved with the name of the brand, the light yet precise threading of the bell, or the small leather links lined and reinforced for greater resistance. 

An avalanche of colours! Because "there's no arguing about taste and colour", we have chosen to widen the range of colour possibilities as much as possible. There are 11 colour variations for "Les Clés", to match your key ring to your mood or your bag. Other colours will soon be added to the site, in the form of limited editions or not.
