Listening carried with you

The Shema Israel keychain is the pocket-sized version of the piece we place on the wall. It keeps the same confession of faith: «Hear, O Israel», but in a format designed to accompany everyday life.

It can be attached to the keys of the house, the car or the community, or kept in a bag or wallet. It is a simple way to keep present the call to listen to God amid daily tasks.

A close gift

Because of its size and price, the keychain is often chosen as a gift for catechesis, first communions, confirmations, farewells for a catechist, or mementos of a community gathering.

It keeps the same handcrafted care as the rest of our pieces: each one is cast and finished by hand in the workshop.
