The best thing about vintage and antique charms is that you never know what you're going to find next. This vintage, 1950s gold lipstick charm is such a fun piece, with a tiny little red plastic lipstick colour too.
The charm is made of 9ct gold with British hallmarks on the bottom for the maker 'FM', 9ct gold, London and the date letter 'd' for 1959. The little button/knob on the side is silver in colour.
The charm measures approx 18.2mm tall by approx 8.3mm wide (not including the jump ring but including ring fitting) by approx 5.5mm deep and weighs approx 0.75g.
Condition - The charm is in good vintage condition but does show signs of age and wear, particularly to the plastic lipstick where there is a small chip to the top edge. Please note that the plastic lipstick is fixed and does not move up or down. The gold does also have some surface wear. The jump ring is currently pushed closed. Please see photos.
*Please note the box and chain pictured are not included in the sale but the charm will be shipped in a new presentation box and pouch.*
