London 1965! 9ct Yellow Gold Bible Charm
The charm opens to reveal its original miniature printed scroll featuring the Lord's Prayer, making it a fascinating collectible as well as a meaningful keepsake. The front cover is decorated with a raised cross, framed by an elegant engraved border, while the reverse mirrors the same decorative design with a plain central panel. Opening the hinged cover reveals the original miniature scroll neatly housed inside, showcasing the remarkable craftsmanship that went into these novelty charms. It weighs 2.2 grams and measures 14.6mm in height by 15mm in width.
The charm features the Makers Mark G&H and was fully hallmarked in London in 1965, confirming its quality and authenticity. Opening Bible charms retaining their original printed scrolls are becoming increasingly difficult to find, making this a particularly desirable example for collectors.
The Bible symbolises faith, hope, guidance and protection, making this an ideal gift for a christening, confirmation, first communion or another important religious milestone. It is equally suited to collectors of vintage gold charms, devotional jewellery and novelty opening charms.
