Roosevelt Approved Leather Keychain – Rat Terrier Owner Gift

About this piece

Rat Terrier folklore holds that Theodore Roosevelt kept terriers at the White House to deal with a rodent problem, and that he gave the breed its name. Historians argue over the details, and owners tell the story regardless. Roosevelt sits in brush script under the tall-eared silhouette, and APPROVED follows in engraved capitals on poppy red leather.

Poppy red is a bright, confident red. A metal die sinks the design into full-grain hide as a blind deboss, and the red deepens with handling. Our workshop cuts and finishes each keychain by hand after ordering. Gold foil is available on request at checkout, with free shipping on US orders.
