Description

Keys that jingle and jangle

The Elvis & Kresse Key Ring is made from genuine decommissioned fire-hose or reclaimed printing blanket. Available in red and the more rare yellow hose or matt black printing blanket, this handmade key ring is certainly heavy-duty.

The fire-hose was previously deployed in active duty for up to 25 years, each key ring is individual and carries its own history of fighting fires and saving lives. It can be engraved with a personalised message and so makes the perfect gift for someone special or just for yourself.

If you choose the personalisation option, this is achieved by laser etching directly into the fire-hose. We recommend not more than 20 characters. The font used is Times New Roman.

THE FIRE-HOSE COLLECTION

We fell in love with London's decommissioned fire-hose back in 2005 through a chance encounter with the London Fire Brigade. We took this lifesaving material home determined to breathe new life into it and save it from its otherwise inevitable end in landfill.

Our Fire-hose pieces are more than just a collection, they represents a whole new kind of luxury. One that is sustainable, ethical, transparent, generous and kind.

Printing Blanket Range

We also offer a Printing Blanket version of our classic pieces. They are made from reclaimed printing blankets, rescued from the printing industry, and combined with our signature decommissioned fire-hose. The re-engineered black printing blanket creates a visually stunning textile that is strong and beautiful to the touch. This version maintains all the design features of the full fire-hose versions.

50% of profits donated

Since 2005 we have been rescuing all of London's retired fire-hose by lovingly handcrafting them into sustainable luxury bags and accessories. Every year since, Elvis & Kresse have donated 50% of the profits from the Fire-hose Collection to The Fire Fighters Charity. This heroic material, once used to save lives, gets a second chance to keep giving back.

Testimonials

I’ve just bought this key ring for my husband whose dad died last year. He was a London firefighter from an early age and went on to receive an MBE for his charitable work for the Firefighter charity. Thank you SO much for creating your amazing business and doing what you do. Amazing work.
