Knots, sinnets and bends have been used for basic purposes of recording information and attaching objects together for thousands of years.

These knots are sculptural objects in their own right, tying together both new and found materials. Once again these knots are being used to record information as they gracefully wear, like a favourite pair of jeans, telling the salty tales of all your adventures.

Knotting today into yesterday with a view of tomorrow.

Each key ring bears the irregularities of the process and the human being that made it. We have made every attempt to provide all the measurements as accurately as possible.
