A key-ring is an accessory which comprises a ring on which we gaiter together keys. The key-ring object has existed for several centuries, in form of a metal ring.

It's only at the 19th century that this term indicates the object itself, without another function that to carry the keys.

 

The first advertising key-ring appeared in 1902, of the mark GLADIATOR, during the Cycle Fair in Brussels. But it was only in the Fifties that the key-ring will became popular and seemed very quickly an obliged advertising medium. The Sixties saw the gold age of the key-rings thanks to famous brands who wanted to improve notoriety of their new products.
