Arcus Carabiner by Svørn

Defying the cheap and gaudy carabiners that climbers and outdoor adventurers rely on, the Arcus carabiner keychain by Swedish company Svørn is an extraordinary object that combines art with its function in a unique fashion. Since it is not designed for actual climbing use, the Arcus is tailored to work around the more daily uses that people have given carabiners, such as holding keys. Made from a Zinc alloy, the Arcus is both light and resilient; with a profile that is much more pragmatic than bulkier standard coupling links and that won’t be uncomfortable in your pocket or attached to a belt loop. Finished in chrome, it once again proves that even the simplest of objects can be vastly improved by good design.
