Gargoyle Smile Key-Ring

Description
Gargoyles in medieval times were often seen on churches and cathedrals and were carved stone grotesques with a spout designed to convey water from a roof and away from the side of a building. Preventing rainwater from running down masonry walls is important because running water erodes the mortar between the stone blocks.
This Gargoyle is inspired from those found on medieval churches and is made from lead-free pewter. It is supplied on a quality key-chain.
