The manatee is the ocean's largest herbivore. Sadly, boaters who are not paying attention often injure these peaceful creatures.
The mold for this manatee keychain was carved by balsa wood artisans on Isla Solentiname, Nicaragua, and then our aluminum artisan partners use that mold to cast the keychains. Using an age-old sand-casting process, scrap aluminum is melted down with old car parts, then cast and polished to perfection. Approximate size: 3" x 1”. Yes, one man’s trash is another’s treasure! Fair trade.
