Always like to be prepared? Then this could be the charm for you! This sweet vintage gold box charm has been designed as a replica wearable first aid box. The lid actually opens and there is space inside for you to keep somthing. Perhaps it did once hold an emergency pain killer or allergy tablet but it's currently empty to hold whatever small necessity or treasure you decide!
The outisde of the charm is decorated with the outline of the first aid cross to the front and also reads 'FIRST AID'. The inside of the lid has a small piece of paper attached with some writing on but it's now not clear enough to read.
The charm is made of 9ct yellow gold with British hallmark to the bottom for the maker 'GJLD', 9ct gold, London and the date letter 'h' for 1963.
The charm measures approx 12.8mm tall (not including the jump ring) by approx 11.2mm wide by approx 9.6mm deep and weighs approx 2.6g in total.
Condition - The charm is in good vintage condition with some light signs of age and wear, including some surface wear and light scratches to the gold. The paper inside the lid is now too damaged to read. The hinged lid opens well and clicks firmly closed to stay closed when worn. 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*
