Item number: 1771407
Give your keys a first-class home made from original aircraft materials that were originally part of the legendary SWISS Airbus 321 with the registration HB-IOC. After 27 years in service with Swissair and SWISS, the Airbus made its final landing in Zurich in 2022. The aeroplane has been transformed into the starting point for the SWISS Recraft Collection, which is the first SWISS aircraft upcycling project. The hook in this set is made from material from the aeroplane's original wing, while the key holders are made from the outer aircraft skin. The set is sure to give your hallway a magical touch of the thrill of travel, especially when you remember that the components have made the equivalent of 1,315 trips around the world before landing on your wall.
HB-IOC: the iconic Airbus 321
The registration "IOC" originally referred to the International Olympic Committee (IOC), and for a year it was decorated with the Olympic rings. The Airbus 321 also bore the name of the city of Lausanne, where the IOC has its headquarters. Later, the aeroplane was renamed after St. Moritz, henceforth carrying the charm of this alpine resort throughout Europe. During its 27 years in regular service, the Airbus 321 transported over seven million guests and completed some 47,000 take-offs and landings. With over 73,000 flying hours and a total flight distance equivalent to 1,315 round-the-world trips or 137 voyages to the moon, every Upcycling product from this aircraft comes with an impressive history.
