Description

The little van behind the Van Go name

The classic green Thomson Mini is the van in our logo and a firm favourite here at Van Go. Small, sweet and full of character, it's made for slow, misty mornings surrounded by green. Your keyring says a lot about you, so why not make yours memorable.

Made from durable metal with vibrant enamel colour, the Thomson Mini is printed on both sides, so it looks just as good whichever way it lands, with two palm leaf charms swinging alongside. A swivel chain lets your keys turn freely. It arrives in a reusable metal tin with our logo embossed in the lid, making it a perfect gift for friends, family and anyone who appreciates great design.

Behind the design

The little Scottish caravan in our logo.

Daniel Thomson was a joiner who began building showman's caravans in Carron, near Falkirk, Scotland, in 1908, and the Thomson Mini Glen came later, small and light enough to be towed behind a Mini. Our Thomson Mini is a 1970 model, built the same year our founder Victoria was born, and not far from the town her ancestors came from, which she only discovered later. Coincidence or not, it had to be the van in our logo.

Why palm leaves?

The Thomson Mini comes from our Magical Mornings design, where it sits beside a 70s Viscount pop top in front of a lush green rainforest. The palm leaves bring a little of that leafy, early-morning calm to your keys.

I was most impressed with the quality of this very special keyring. It is very solid and impressive. I have bought it for my daughter and son-in-law as part of their Christmas present, and I am sure they will like it as much as I do. Thank you for producing such a special item.

Each keyring measures 11 x 5cm and weighs about 30g, a good size to find easily in a bag or glovebox without being bulky.

Are the keyrings double-sided?

Yes, the caravan or motorhome is printed on both sides, so it looks right whichever way it lands. On most designs the charms are double-sided too. Each product’s All the details tab shows exactly which parts are printed on both sides.

What are the charms on each keyring?

Every keyring has two charms chosen to tell a little story with its van, like flamingos with the Sunliner or a kiwi and kōwhai with the New Zealand-born Crusader. You’ll find the story behind each pair in the Behind the design tab.

Do the keyrings come gift-ready?

Yes. Every keyring arrives in a reusable metal tin with the Van Go logo embossed in the lid, so it’s ready to give without any extra wrapping.

What are they made from?

Durable metal with vibrant enamel colour, on a swivel chain that lets your keys turn freely.

Are these real vintage vans?

Yes. Each design is hand-illustrated by our founder Victoria from a real vintage caravan or motorhome, from the Australian-built Sunliner and Millard to the American Airstream and the Dutch Otten.
