A timeless classic, this gold heart padlock is such a sweet piece to add to your jewellery box. Often used as clasps for charm bracelets, these padlocks can also be added onto chains and worn as a pendant/charm too. They can even be used as charm holders!
The padlock is made of 9ct gold, with British marks for the maker 'WHWLD' and '9c' for 9ct gold to the back. The front of the padlock has lovely faux screw and keyhole detailing. The lever opens by pulling upwards and closes with a click so it is nice and secure when worn.
The padlock measures approx 21.5mm tall (including the ring on the top bar) by approx 12.8mm wide by approx 2.8mm deep and weighs approx 1.7g.
Condition - The padlock is in good vintage condition but does show signs of age and wear including surface wear to the gold throughout. This includes some surface scratches to the gold. The hinge mechanism works well and the lever pulls open and pushes closed with a click. Please see photos.
*Please note the box and chain pictured are not included in the sale but the padlock will be shipped in a new presentation box and pouch.*
