I was shopping for a keyring. I’d perused the modernist stainless steel offerings and toyed with the smart leather strap-and-ring contraptions at serially hip interiors store Skandium when, from the corner of my eye, I saw this little fellow winking at me.
I realise that my tastes are increasingly dog-centric: I immediately passed over the clean lines of those Georg Jensen classics in favour of something soft and Schnauzer-shaped. Made by Hey-Sign, a German interiors and accessories line that specialises in felt wool products, it’s terribly sweet and I’d hazard a guess that it would make many any terrier owner smile, too (as, at £5, might the price).
