AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
Old advertising keyring, featuring a rectangular shape with rounded corners, fitted with a metal ring connected by a chain to the main part. The visible side is protected by a transparent surface, revealing a graphic insert underneath. The legible inscription reads: "NOISETTE du VELAY" on a yellow background, followed by "VEY-MAURIN Le Puy France" on a black background, accompanied by a stylized illustration of a hazelnut branch, typical of French advertising creations from the mid-20th century. The whole evokes a retro style, characteristic of promotional items from the 60s to 70s.
The keyring displays a clear and contrasted visual, with bold colors (yellow, black, green) enhancing the advertising aspect. The print is sharp, with no visible smudges on this side. The transparent part suggests a certain thickness and a smooth finish, providing good protection for the inner insert.
The ring and chain have a shiny metallic appearance, with no apparent oxidation on the visible area. The transition between the chain and the body of the keyring appears solid and well-fitted. No chips, missing parts, or cracks are visible on the photographed side.
The typography used, the bright colors, and the graphic design of the illustration are typical of vintage advertising items, often produced by regional companies to promote their local products. Here, the mention "VEY-MAURIN Le Puy France" highlights the geographical and artisanal origin of the product represented.
The transparent surface shows some signs of use, indicating an authentic patina, with no deep scratches or major flaws on the exposed side. The whole retains good legibility and a neat presentation.
