حلقه کلید


Explanation:
I think "حلقه کلید" is the best equivalent, since "جا کلیدی" is an equivalent for "key chain".

neutral  Hosein H: Have you ever used this phrase yourself? like have you ever said "چه حلقه کلیده خوشگلی"? no offense!
21 hrs
  -> By "حلقه کلید" I mean just the metal ring for holding keys. But you are right, "جا کلیدی" is more common than it. Thanks a lot!
