The structure of the key and lock imitates the Victorian-era padlock style, and continued to be produced for decorative and ornamental purposes even into the 20th century, emphasizing its aesthetic appeal. The English inscriptions \"HAND MADE\" and \"SECURE,\" the thick screw and rivet construction, and the combination of brass and iron suggest a manufacturing background in artisan workshops before full industrialization. Despite having English engravings like \"HAND MADE\" and \"SECURE,\" the slightly uneven lettering and rustic finish suggest a high probability of it being an Asian handicraft exported to English-speaking regions. India still produces many traditional brass products and padlocks, and similar locks are currently made as tourist souvenirs and decorative items. There are several possible uses for this type of key and lock. Given its size (4.5cm) and simple structure, it was likely not for doors but for easily securing portable items or boxes. In Asian regions, highly decorative locks were used for sacred boxes or toolboxes. Based on the decorative engravings and \"HAND MADE\" inscription, it is possible that this was a replica design product leveraging local traditional craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e※Based on AI research.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"イエローガレージ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42871936516180,"sku":"R080195","price":18900.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/3856\/4948\/files\/0_90653238-cc08-45e3-886d-b567fee9efdd.jpg?v=1769334446","url":"https:\/\/adhocstore.com\/en\/products\/antique-brass-padlock-key-set-45cm","provider":"ADHOCストアー","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
