How sweet is this miniature vintage gold and enamel Royal Air Force flag!? Perfect for commemorating the King's coronation as he served in the RAF in the 1970s. It would also make a sentimental gift for someone who served themselves.
We love not only the bright, vibrant enamel detailing, but also how it has been made to look like it has been caught rippling in the breeze.
The charm is made of 9ct gold, marked '9ct' to the back and has red, white and blue enamel to the front. The back is plain. Without hallmarks, it's hard to date the charm exactly but we think it likely dates to around the 1950s.
The charm measures approx 15.2mm tall by approx 18.6mm wide (not including the jump ring) by approx 1.5mm wide and weighs approx 1.3g in total.
Condition - The charm is in good vintage condition with some light signs of age and wear, including light surface wear to the gold and enamel. The enamel is in incredible condition considering the charm's age. The jump ring is currently pushed closed. Please see photos.
*Please note the antique box and chain pictured are not included in the sale but the charm will be shipped in a new presentation box and pouch.*
