A beautifully charming vintage 9ct gold opening locket charm, fully hallmarked in London, 1951. Crafted in solid gold and weighing a satisfying 3 grams, this piece has a wonderful, reassuring presence despite its petite size.
The charm opens to reveal a delicately detailed interior, a hidden moment tucked away behind finely worked hinged doors. Measuring 2cm tall, 1.2cm wide, and 5.5mm deep.
Its mid-century London hallmark places it firmly in post-war Britain, a time when jewellery was made with care, intention, and longevity in mind. The gold has aged beautifully, retaining its warm tone and gentle patina that only decades of life can give.
This isn’t just a charm. It’s a secret, a keepsake, a tiny golden door to the past. Fully hallmarked vintage gold from the early 1950s is becoming increasingly hard to find, especially in such charming, wearable form. It’s perfect for collectors, sentimental souls, or anyone who loves jewellery with a story and a little mystery.
A timeless piece to treasure, layer, or gift made to be loved now, and cherished for generations to come.

Is this item real Gold?
All my jewellery is real Gold. I sell mainly 9ct Gold; but also 14ct, 18ct and even 22ct!
• GOLD: It is a precious metal that is found in a solid and pure state both in the earth's crust and in the seabed and riverbeds. It has been the most widely used metal since ancient times, especially in crafts, for more than 5,000 years.
