WEIGHT: 0.4g.

FAQs

Historically, horseshoe charms were worn as talismans believed to bring good luck and offer protection against evil. Traditionally, wearing or displaying the horseshoe facing upwards is thought to collect and store good fortune.

Vintage 9ct gold charms are crafted from a metal alloy containing 37.5% pure gold combined with copper and silver for enhanced strength. They are cast as solid or hollow forms and feature suspension rings for attachment to chains.

Authentic British gold charms feature official assay hallmarks stamped into the metal, indicating gold purity such as 375 or 9, alongside a symbol for the assay office and a specific date letter code.

A vintage gold charm can be suspended individually on a fine gold neck chain or combined with other historical charms on a heavy charm bracelet or layered necklace.

Clean 9ct gold gently using warm water, mild liquid soap, and a soft brush to remove dirt from recessed areas. Store the piece individually in a lined box or pouch to prevent surface scratches.
