Product Description
A cast iron sea turtle with a hinged shell that hides a spare key
This cast iron turtle key box looks like a simple garden sea turtle until you lift its shell. Underneath is a small hidden compartment sized for a spare house key, tucked away among the plants by the door.
The turtle is cast in iron with a textured shell, detailed flippers, and a rust-brown finish that settles naturally into a garden bed or porch step. At 1 inch high and 4 inches across, it is small enough to go unnoticed and sturdy enough to sit outdoors through the seasons.
