If you loved the beautiful Tiffany & Co. Key Collection we recently highlighted, you'll love this -- you can get a Tiffany Key, like the Heart Key Charm with Tiffany Blue® Enamel Finish (right) for $200 or less.

It might be the perfect Mother's Day (May 10th) gift, or just a little something you do for yourself. Why not engrave it with Mom's initials or with something special to you?

The keys, which can cost up to $15,000 (for the Round Kaleidoscope Key Pendant with Marquise which features square and round brilliant diamonds in platinum on a platinum and diamond chain), come at a wide range of prices. Forgo the diamonds and the platinum to get a reasonably priced gold key, or an even more affordable silver key.

At any price, all the key pendants have the vintage charm and fanciful glamour of Tiffany's. Below are our favorite "Small Splurges:"

Tiffany & Co. has a new collection of keys you're going to love.

There's something so intriguing and exciting about a key. A key represents mystery, privilege, and secrecy, and perhaps most importantly, security -- something that is hard to come by lately. The new Tiffany & Co. Key Collection has all that plus more -- including diamonds.

Alas, these beautiful keys are more magical than practical; none of them open any doors. Still, the elegant, beautiful designs could capture any heart, and a simple engraving could add timeless meaning and individuality to one of these key pendants.

The Tiffany keys come in gold, silver, and platinum with Celtic inspired designs, diamond details, and an array of matching chains is available. Shop here, and have a look at some of our favorite designs below.

Shopping for the person who has everything can be quite a challenge. But chances are that hard-to-buy-for person on your gift list does not have this universal key fob from Keyport. It is a brilliant idea that was long overdue. Machined from aircraft grade aluminum, the Keyport integrates up to six keys into one slim device. Simply have your keys copied to a compatible blank, attach to the key fob and use the simple thumb-slide to access when needed. You will never have to deal with jagged keys poking holes in your pockets again. It works with all standard keys and is available with a built-in remote for your car and remote frequency identification for keyless entries. A limited edition first run is available now in four colors for $295.

Accents, no matter how small, are what give a space real personality and the personality that His & Hers Keyholders bring to a room is a good one, sure to put a smile on your face. The chrome-plated zinc panels are each about the size of a light switch faceplate, measuring 4.3" x 3.25", and attach to any wall. They come with a small key that fits into their locks, enabling your keys to dangle where you're sure not to loose them. The pair makes a great housewarming gift for couples who really don't need another potted plant. Price: $29.95.

Jack Spade is the male counterpart to the heavily female-centric line from designer Kate Spade. The Pi Keychain could certainly appeal to anyone, regardless of gender. The ring and the key on it, which is un-filed, are both made of sterling silver and the ring is engraved with the first twenty-one digits of the number pi: 3.14159265358979323846. It is a subtly flashy keychain, perfect for those who don't like to have unnecessarily large things dangling with they keys. Price: $90.

The Dior Gaucho Double Saddle Bag is definitely an eye-catcher. Not only is the bag a hot item this season due to its charming vintage western look, but to its flashy antiqued silver hardware and accessories. Each bag has two pairs of "1947" Christian Dior medallions and large old-fashioned keys dangling from both the front buckle and the strap. 1947 is a significant year for the designer because it marks the debut of the very first Dior collection, a collection which introduced the "New Look" of tight waists and long, fitted skirts. Getting back to the Gaucho, the flaps of the bag lift up to reveal interior compartments on either side of the purse, including a pocket just the right size for a cell phone, and seal with magnetic clasps. The bag is available in both dark red and in white, which has more noticeable contrast stitching on the soft, washed calfskin leather. Price: $1,995.
