Dum Spiro Spero — while I breathe, I hope.
This hand-stamped keychain features the Latin phrase Dum Spiro Spero, a timeless expression of resilience, endurance, and hope. Rooted in Stoic philosophy, the phrase serves as a quiet reminder that as long as life remains, so does possibility.
Each keychain is individually hand stamped onto solid copper or pewter, metals chosen for their grounded, enduring character and connection to traditional craftsmanship. Finished with a sturdy clasp, it’s designed to be carried daily — a small but meaningful companion through whatever lies ahead.
Simple, intentional, and made to last, this piece is not decorative. It’s affirming.
Details:
• Hand-stamped Latin quote Dum Spiro Spero
• Solid copper or pewter plate
• Durable clasp for everyday use
• Handmade — natural variations and patina make each piece unique
A thoughtful gift for moments of transition, healing, encouragement, or quiet strength.
Made to order and thoughtfully packaged, ready for gifting.

To preserve the integrity of your jewelry, avoid exposure to water, perfumes, and chemicals. Store pieces in a dry environment when not in use.
Fine pewter naturally oxidizes in the same way as sterling silver; its luster can be restored using a polishing cloth or fine-grade steel wool. This same method is also effective for maintaining the finish of copper and brass components.
Each piece is meticulously crafted using premium materials, including genuine leather, hypoallergenic metals, genuine gemstones, and hand-stamped accents. These selections are chosen for their quality, durability, and comfort, ensuring both long-lasting wear and a refined finish.
Each item is carefully packaged in a reusable cotton gift bag, reflecting the handmade nature of the jewelry. This presentation is suitable for both personal use and gifting. A personalized message may be added at checkout.
