Object description :

"Nightingale Locksmith."
Locksmith's nightingale: Iron, consisting of a ring (called "aviary") supporting 45 master keys, bearing the inscriptions "E. Chauvet". Good general condition, with traces of use. - Its name comes from Antoine Rossignol, a 17th century cryptologist. This researcher, a lover of numbers and other encrypted codes, has become one of the best experts in data coding and encryption but also a specialist in decryption of secure communications. History relates, but without real proof, that the very first master key, called the "skeleton key", was invented by Antoine Rossignol in order to open all the locks in the kingdom of Louis XIV.
