Interesting! What nationality are you if you don't mind me asking? Are you supposed to wear a key especially if you are 21 or they just give it to you at 21 and doesn't matter when you wear it?

I'm Chinese, but I'll say it's more of a socio-cultural thing rather than a race thing, cos not all Chinese will give key pendants as 21 yr old presents. And i do know of other non- Chinese girls (Malay and Indian girls, specifically) who are given key pendants when they turn 21 too. It just signifies a coming of age, so no, you don't have to wear it if you don't want to :smile1:

As far as I know, only girls receive key pendants though, not boys, which makes me think it isn't something that has to be strictly followed. Maybe it's just a jewellery thing :p. If I have a daughter I'll give her my key when she turns 21, but since I have 2 boys, I guess I'll wait for a granddaughter, lol :D

What nationality/ race is your patient? Just curious

Santa was good to me this Christmas! I love the T&Co keys and have been wanting a new one to wear with some of my other pieces. I love the versatility of this collection so I thought I'd add pictures of the many ways I will be wearing it.
