This is such an unusual little charm, and a little fierce too! It is shaped like a ball with tiny spikes all around it.
The charm is made of rolled gold, which is base metal with a fine layer of gold adhered to the top. This layer of gold has now worn away in a lot of places around the ball and the base metal shows through. The jump ring is made of 9ct gold, hallmarked.
The charm measures approx 11.4mm tall (not including the jump ring) by approx 9.1mm wide by approx 9.1mm deep and weighs approx 0.55g in total. The charm is hollow in the middle and has a seam line from when it was made.
Condition - The charm is in used vintage condition with surface wear to the rolled gold as mentioned above. It has worn away in a lot of places and the darker base metal underneath now shows through. There is a seam line that runs around the side of the charm from when it was made. The jump ring is currently pushed closed and is made of 9ct gold, hallmarked '9.375'. 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*
