Frequently asked questions

What type of wood is used for the keychains?

We primarily use 1/8" premium solid Cherry hardwood. We selected Cherry for its elegant grain structure and its ability to hold incredible detail, whether we are laser-etching a design or printing vibrant, full-color artwork.

Is the wood sustainably sourced?

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we create. We source our hardwoods primarily from the American Midwest, where we rely on small-scale, selective harvesting rather than clearcutting. By only harvesting mature trees marked by professional foresters, our suppliers ensure the forest floor has the space and sunlight needed for the next generation of trees to thrive. In a region where forest growth outpaces harvest by over 30%, your keychains are as kind to the earth as they are beautiful.

What kind of hardware do they come with?

Our keychains feature high-quality metal hardware paired with a specialized plastic connector. This low-profile connector is designed to provide extra flexibility, allowing the keychain to move naturally with the twists and turns of your keys or bag without putting unnecessary stress on the wood.

Do you offer custom shapes, or just standard sizes?

Your imagination is the only limit. Utilizing precision laser cutting, we can contour your keychains into almost any custom shape—from intricate logos to organic silhouettes—without being restricted to standard circles or squares.

Can I see a proof before my order is produced?

Yes. We want you to love the final product. For all orders, we provide a digital proof for your approval to ensure the placement, sizing, and details are exactly where they should be before we move into production.

How long does production take?

We take pride in our "Made in the USA" speed and efficiency. For most orders, our standard production time is a swift 2–5 business days. While larger orders may take slightly longer, we always strive to get your keychains in your hands as quickly as possible.

Durability and Use

How do I care for my wooden keychain?

While our keychains are durable, wood is a natural, living material. To keep your keychain looking its best for years to come, we recommend avoiding prolonged submersion in water. If it needs cleaning, a quick wipe with a soft, dry cloth is all it needs.

How do they age over time?

We love how our keychains evolve with use. While our UV Printed keychains are engineered to stay crisp and colorful for the life of the product, our Engraved keychains will naturally develop a beautiful patina. Over time and with frequent handling, the natural cherry wood will deepen in character, giving the engraving an authentic, weathered look that only real wood can achieve.

Is the wood strong enough for a keychain?

Yes. By using 1/8" solid Cherry hardwood, we ensure a perfect balance between a lightweight feel and structural integrity. Our keychains are built to handle the bumps and scuffs of everyday life on your keyring.

Product Questions

How deep is the engraving?

Our precision lasers do more than just mark the surface; they lightly etch into the hardwood. This creates a beautiful, tactile 3D effect that you can feel with your fingertips, giving each keychain a premium, handcrafted look and feel.

Can you engrave very fine details?

Yes. Our laser technology is precise enough to capture exceptionally fine details. Whether it is small, legible text or intricate geometric linework, the clarity and contrast are exceptional.

Does the engraving color vary between keychains?

Slightly, yes—and that is the beauty of a natural product. Because wood density varies even within a single sheet, the laser reacts uniquely to different areas, creating subtle shifts in the "burnt" tone. This ensures that every single keychain is a one-of-a-kind piece of art.

Is there a "burnt" smell to the keychains?

When you first open your package, you might notice a faint, campfire-like aroma. This is a natural byproduct of the precision laser-cutting process. It is completely non-toxic and typically dissipates within 24 to 48 hours once the keychains are removed from their packaging.
