Tiger Keychain Astrology

An orange disc at the center of this keychain carries a small walking tiger, shown in profile with its tail low and its stripes drawn in dark brown. Around it runs a ring of years, 1902, 1914, 1926 and on through 1962, 1986 and 2022 to 2034, and an outer band of little gold symbols set in brown circles frames the whole picture under a clear glass dome.

The years of the Tiger

In the Chinese zodiac, each year belongs to one of twelve animals, and the Tiger returns every twelve years. The dates printed around this tiger are those Tiger years, so a person born in one of them is, by tradition, a Tiger. That makes the keychain a personal little piece for anyone born under the sign, and our list of top 10 tiger gift ideas gathers more presents in the same spirit. Other designs, from tiger heads to enamel cubs, hang in our tiger keychain collection.

Size and materials

The pendant measures 20mm in diameter. It is a glass ball pendant in a zinc alloy mount, and the photograph shows the domed glass rising on both faces of the round setting. A short link chain joins it to a silver-tone split ring that holds keys or clips to a bag.
