Here's what's inside box nine of our 12 Days of Christmas (or Charm-mas if you will!) Advent Calendar... a vintage gold carousel that turns beautifully too! The charms is available at the special discounted price until we open box ten at 6pm GMT (10th December 2023) too.
The carousel has the most wonderful details throughout, from the patterns on the canopy and base, to the tiny little horses that actually turn like a real carousel! We can't help but think of festive Christmas markets each time we look at it.
The charm is made of 9ct yellow gold and has British hallmarks to the base. They are hard to make out clearly but the 9ct gold mark and the Birmingham Assay Office mark can just about be read. The charm likely dates to the 1960s.
The charm measures approx 13.5mm tall (not including the jump ring) by approx 12.4mm wide and weighs approx 3g in total.
Condition - The charm is in good vintage condition with some light surface wear and a little rubbing to the gold. The jump ring is currently pushed closed. Please see photos.
*Please note the chain and box pictured are not included in the sale but the charm will be shipped in a new presentation box and pouch*
