This vintage gold orb/ball charm has wonderful openwork detailing to it that we think looks like a heart pattern. The shape reminds us of a pomander that would have been used to hold something that smells nice and there would be holes to let the smell through. This little orb/ball doesn't open but it makes a pretty charm/pendant.
The charm is made of 9ct gold, the charm itself is unhallmarked but tested. The attached jump ring has hallmarks for 9ct gold.
The charm weighs approx 1.5g and measures approx 14.3mm tall (including the ring at the top but not the jump ring) by approx 10.3mm wide by approx 10.3mm deep.
Condition - The charm is in good vintage condition but does show some light signs of age and wear including some light surface wear to the gold. The jump ring is currently pushed closed. Please see photos.
*Please note the antique box and chain pictured are not included in the sale but the charm will be shipped in a new presentation box and pouch.*
