How nice of your DH, I hope it cheered you up from whatever was bothering you. 
I hope you kept that key, I think it looks nice. I think it looks especially nice on the 16" chain. As for being trendy, I personally don't think you should worry about that. It's a good piece of jewellery.

It's a good piece of jewellery.I think you should keep what you have. If I recall, you have the 18" chain. To me, the key looks too big on the model to be on a 16" chain. On an 18" chain, you can still highlight the key against your chest with the right neckline top. If you go longer than that, it may get visually lost in your clothing unless you're wearing a solid color top with no buttons or other ornamentation. I think you made the perfect choice in both the key and the 18" chain.
I agree with others who have said that the key design is a classic look! I got a small key pendant about 5 years ago before it was "trendy" and always got compliments on it. Now I'm hoping to get a Tiffany key pendant to replace it (I lost it a few months ago). If you really are worried about it being timeless maybe you should go for one of the smaller keys (that way the design isn't as out there and might be less trendy looking)- but really, I think you could wear what you have for years and years to come.
^ agree
If i could have it my way I would have one of the ones with the diamonds all over it! OP you are a lucky girl
I'm so excited because my bf is hinting that he'll get me one of the diamond Keys pendant for our aniversary, but that's like a full month away. I don't know if i can wait that long lol

I really like both that Fleur de lis and Crown key, I think both are classic if you love them, and I don't even like Tiffany jewelry, but these don't scream Tiffany to me. They look more like vintage or Victorian jewelry. I totally got my key necklace out after seeing these and now I want to wear it tomorrow! I would only get one key, I don't really like the look of multiples together. I believe they are both an inch and a half long, so it comes down to which one you prefer and how you feel about the prices.
As for chain length, I saw that you can buy them w/o the chain which is what I would probably do and then just put it on a chain you already have or you could buy a few chains of different sizes elsewhere for the same price as that one chain from Tiffany's. Another option would be buying the shorter chain and then adding an extender to the back to make it different sizes. I do not think the key is too large for the 16'' chain, I measured my key for comparison and it is the same size as the ones you posted and it is on a 16'' chain with an up to 3.5'' extender. Mine looks great on the short and longer lengths depending on what I wear it with. Some necklines look better with a 16'' chain, some tops are not low cut enough to accomodate the 18'' and it competes. So I would figure out a way to have a little more versatility with chain length, either using chains you already own, buying multiple lengths, or using an extender.

I bought the crown key on an oval link chain yesterday morning, but ended up returning it yesterday afternoon. It's big and the size was just awkward for me. I'm really petite and I also felt that although I had it on a 20 inch chain, it just wasn't quite right. I don't like it on a shorter chain because the key itself is so big, and I don't like it longer, and didn't like the mini keys, so I found this collection just didn't work for me. I was disappointed. It's gorgeous, but it's just a very awkward size. I think if I had been bigger and taller, it would have been fine.
I just bought the SS Crown Key on the 24 inch Oval chain...Love it!!!
i bought the same one! i think the oval chain is the perfect one for the crown key. love it!
