Medieval Padlock Medici with Chainmail Keychain

Medieval Padlock Medici with Chainmail Keychain

Property Protection in the Style of Renaissance Florence

This padlock is handcrafted from durable mild steel, and its surface is finished to give an antique, slightly weathered appearance. As a result, it looks as if it has just been unearthed from an old bank vault excavation. The construction is riveted and robust, yet it retains the elegance of period craftsmanship. An interesting and practical detail is the chainmail keychain. It is woven from steel rings in a "4-in-1" pattern, the same technique used for making chainmail armour. This ensures you can easily find your keys, and the keychain itself becomes a stylish accessory for your costume.

Where and How to Use It

Historically, such locks were used to secure valuables in chests, lock doors to storerooms, or secure shackles. Today, you can use it primarily as: * **Period Accessory:** Ideal for historical chests, jewellery boxes, or as a prop on a jailer's belt. * **LARP and Escape Rooms:** A great prop that gives players a tactile experience when unlocking "ancient" doors or chests. * **Decoration:** Also suitable for interiors designed in a rustic or industrial style.

Product Care

Since the lock is made of mild steel, which is naturally prone to corrosion, it requires minor maintenance. * **Preservation:** Regularly treat the lock and keys with preservation oil (e.g., WD-40 or gun oil). This prevents the mechanism from rusting and keeps it running smoothly. * **Moisture:** If the lock gets wet, dry it as soon as possible and re-oil it. * **Note:** The lock is a replica of a historical mechanism. It is not certified as a security element for property protection in the modern sense (e.g., for insurance purposes).
