A shrinking key is a key in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. It is enchanted to shrink in size until it disappears. They are often given to unsuspecting Muggles who will believe that they have lost the key when it disappears.[1]
In the summer of 1992, Arthur Weasley and the Misuse of Muggle Artefacts Office conducted a raid and found a few shrinking keys.[1]
