Vintage Advertising Keychain Fleur Bleue Metis Red Blue Retro
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
Vintage promotional keychain, featuring a trapezoidal red-textured face. The central part is adorned with a blue four-leaf clover motif, bearing the embossed inscription "FLEUR BLEUE" in capital letters. Below, the word "Métis" appears in cursive letters, also embossed, tone-on-tone with the background. The whole presents a colorful contrast and a glossy finish, characteristic of vintage promotional productions from the mid to late 20th century.
The keychain is equipped with a side-opening ring, connected to the plate by an exposed metal spring, typical of robust models from the period. The visible attachment system has a patinated appearance, suggesting past use and reinforcing the object's authentic retro character. No additional markings or inscriptions are visible on the face shown.
The design plays on a combination of bright colors and embossed lettering, giving it good readability and a classic advertising aesthetic. The typography and logo evoke a graphic style from the 1970s-1980s, common in promotional items from French brands of that period.
The visible surface shows no major cracks or chips, but does show some signs of wear consistent with daily use. The patina of the ring and spring accentuates the authentic vintage character of this promotional keychain.
Condition
Used item, sold as is. The keychain shows visible signs of wear on the attachment system and surface, with no apparent structural damage to the photographed face.
