Does it come with a way to attach it?

Troubleshooting

Keyring feels loose

Ensure the metal clasp is fully closed. If the keyring itself is detaching from the bear, contact the retailer for potential warranty options as this may indicate a manufacturing defect.

Fabric appears soiled

Gently spot clean with a slightly damp, soft cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild fabric cleaner sparingly and test on an inconspicuous area first. Always allow to air dry completely.

Metal Orb or plaque is tarnished

Use a soft, dry polishing cloth specifically designed for jewelry or metal. Gently rub the tarnished areas. Avoid using liquid metal polishes which may affect the fabric.

Cons

  • Fabric construction may be susceptible to wear and tear over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The keyring requires no setup. Simply attach it to your desired items using the provided metal keyring and clasp.

Compatibility: This keyring is compatible with most standard keyrings, zippers, and bag loops. It can be attached to backpacks, handbags, wallets, or used as a standalone decorative charm.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the fabric bear with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the fabric. Use a dry, soft cloth to polish the metal components (Orb and logo plaque) if they become dull. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the fabric and the metal finish.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the keyring in a cool, dry place, preferably in a dust bag or a soft pouch to prevent scratches and dust accumulation.
  • Handling: Avoid excessive pulling or tugging on the bear or its attachments to prevent stress on the fabric and metal connections. Keep away from direct sunlight for prolonged periods to prevent color fading.
