The Tuareg employ an elaborate aesthetic when fashioning their inventive locks and keys. Geometric layers of silver, brass and copper are forged into working padlocks that come with a set of keys and can be opened in three succesive stages. Numbers 8, 9 and 10 are older and work with only one key.

These are all new and were probably made to be sold.
