Cork Key Ring

Harvested from Quercus tuber, a species of oak tree known as the cork oak, cork is a buoyant, impermeable bark tissue that grows primarily in southwest Europe and northwest Africa. Its most common usage is as wine stoppers, but it is also available in sheets that are used for floor and wall coverings, bulletin boards, building supplies, musical instruments, tools and even in clothing. Light and fire resistant it is a natural material that is ecologically-friendly as the cork trees are not damaged when the bark is extracted.
