Skeleton keys are older keys that used to be commonly used in doors and cabinets right up until the 1940's. Skeleton keys are also called master keys in Europe because one key is usually able to open several doors. The pin tumbler key was introduced shortly after World War II and became quiet popular, eventually rendering skeleton keys obsolete. In recent years skeleton keys have become quiet fashionable in many jewelry design.
