Description

This antique padlock features a classic rectangular shape, typical of utilitarian models from the 20th century. Its brass-patinated surface shows visible signs of wear, highlighting its vintage and retro character. The shackle, with a shiny metallic finish, contrasts with the padlock's body and is held by two visible black plastic rings at its base.

On the front, a key is inserted into the mechanism, attached to a rectangular brown leather keychain, stitched around its perimeter. The key has a flat and grooved shape, standard for this type of utilitarian padlock. No logo, inscription, or brand is visible on the presented surface.

The ensemble, consisting of the padlock, key, and leather tag, suggests traditional use for securing chests, drawers, suitcases, or lockers. The overall condition shows a uniform patina, some oxidation marks, and micro-scratches that testify to previous use, while maintaining visual robustness.

The leather keychain adds an extra touch of authenticity, with discreet signs of wear on the edges, confirming the object's age. The opening and closing mechanism is not visible in operation, but the key appears to be original and suitable for the padlock's lock.
