Geometric Heart Key Ring

A heart broken down into flat planes — the familiar shape kept intact, but every curve replaced by a facet, so it catches light in hard edges the way a cut stone does. Low-poly styling has stayed popular for exactly this reason: it takes something sentimental and gives it a graphic, contemporary edge instead of a saccharine one. As a keyring it is deliberately understated. Nothing on it dates, nothing on it names anybody, and it reads as design rather than declaration, which makes it easier to give than a heart with a message on it. Valentine's, an anniversary, a first-flat housewarming, or simply something better than the plastic fob that came with the keys. A single-model download and a small one, which makes it a natural filler on a plate and a straightforward thing to make in quantity for a market stall or a gift bag.
