Vintage Hardy Cognac blue rooster advertising keyring France retro alcohol

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Old advertising keychain depicting a stylized rooster, a strong emblem of French culture. The flattened object is made in a deep blue hue, typical of promotional productions from the 1960s-1970s. The material has a molded plastic appearance, without excessive shine, with clear graphic reliefs that structure the rooster's silhouette. The geometric patterns on the wing and the volute on the body accentuate the retro effect of the whole.

On the visible side, the inscription "COGNAC HARDY" is perfectly legible, molded in relief in the upper part of the piece. This lettering confirms the advertising function of the object, designed to promote the famous French cognac house. The short chain, in patinated bronze color, connects the rooster to a metallic key ring with a silver finish, equipped with a classic opening system.

The surface shows some traces of use and slight visible marks related to its age, without altering the legibility of the pattern or the solidity of the whole. The object maintains a beautiful color uniformity on the photographed side, with a discreet patina on the chain that testifies to its age and advertising authenticity.

The rooster's design, both graphic and streamlined, is reminiscent of French design trends from the mid-century decades, where stylization and color were used to serve the visual communication of alcohol brands and emblematic products.

This keychain thus combines decorative value with a historical dimension, illustrating both French advertising heritage and the world of cognac.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. Traces of use, small visible marks on the blue surface, patina on the chain. The whole remains solid and the inscription is clearly legible.
