The Crossed Keys Charm has two magical purposes within folk magic. One use is ti be hung up above your door to protect your home from thieves. The other is hung above your bed or working space to aid in spirit travel. The Crossed Keys is associated with St. Peter who holds heavens door keys. This allows the practitioner's spirit to travel through doors of different astral realms.

The charm is made from two silver painted pewter keys, tired with red woollen cord with three knots and a tassle at the bottom
