The iconic design brand Under Cover teamed up with Medicom Toy to transform its iconic apple-mimicking light, called 'GILAPPLE' into a handy keychain. The two brands have worked together on previous projects, which include the very first GILAPPLE lamps from 2010.
Each of the keychains will identically resemble the original versions of the lamps, but in a much smaller size. The keychain contains a circular window on the face of each apple, which is where the bright yellow light is emitted from.
While the original versions were great desk accessories, these smaller accessories will ensure each user always has a portable flashlight. The new keychains will be on sale at the end of the month on October 31. They will be available in a variety of seven different colors including silver, red and yellow.
