Vintage enamel charms are one of our absolute favourites to find and this vintage gold and enamel King of Diamonds playing card charm is such a rare one to find! Highly collectable, this vintage gold playing card has such intricate enamel detailing. Perhaps you love to play cards or you'd like to gift it to someone who is a king of diamonds/jewellery, it could symbolise a vartiey of different things!
The charm is made of 9ct yellow gold and has British hallmarks to the back for maker 'ACCo', 9ct gold, London and the date letter 'Q' for 1951. These hallmarks are now a little worn and hard to read clearly. There is also a faint hand scratched mark that reads 'Cz/285' which we think is likely an old stock mark. The enamel detailing is just to the front of the charm and the back is plain besides the hallmarks.
The charm measures approx 14.5mm tall (not including the jump ring) by approx 8.3mm wide by approx 1.1mm deep and weighs approx 1g.
Condition - The charm is in good vintage condition but does show signs of age and wear to both the gold and enamel. There is some surface wear to the enamel in places. The jump ring is currently pushed closed. Please see photos and videos.
*Please note the antique box and the two antique chains pictured are not included in the sale but the charm will be shipped in a new presentation box and pouch.*
