香港仔 Pawn Shop Signage Keychain

香港仔 — three readings, one phrase. It’s Aberdeen, the historic fishing harbour on Hong Kong Island. It’s “little Hong Kong,” a literal translation of the characters. And it’s a term of endearment for a young Hong Kong lad — a boy of this city, shaped by its streets. Which meaning you carry is entirely up to you.

Shaped after the classic “Bat Holding a Coin” (福鼠吊金錢) — a traditional Chinese auspicious motif symbolising fortune and prosperity — this keychain recreates one of Hong Kong’s most recognisable street-level icons: the pawn shop sign (當舖招牌). Each piece features a Cantonese phrase rendered in bold, vertical style, just like the signs that have hung above neighbourhood pawn shops for generations.

Locally designed typefaces.
We offer 2 typeface styles, both created by local Hong Kong typeface designers. We hold commercial licences for both — supporting the local type design community while bringing authentic Hong Kong character to every piece.

Made entirely in-house.
Each keychain is laser engraved on acrylic, hand painted individually, and cut to size — all done completely by our own team. No outsourcing, no shortcuts.
