This listing is for an antique skeleton key with a handmade glass bead adorning it. The bead is suspended on the barrel of the key; it is made from black glass with gold aventurine stringer work. There is a smaller bead on the key, made of gold aventurine encased in clear.

The key itself is 89 mm long. This is the largest of the black and gold keys available today.

These keys are meant to wear on a cord or a chain, to adorn your keyring, or hung as display. Please be aware that the beads are made of glass, and need to be cared for. Do not use them in anyway that you think may harm the glass.

All of my beads are made by me, completely by hand. I use Moretti, Vetrofond, Lauscha, ASK, CIM, Double Helix, and Reichenbach glass. All beads are kiln annealed to ensure strength.

Any questions or concerns, please contact me! I enjoy what I do and I hope that you like my work! Enjoy!
