Vintage 9ct Gold Egg Cup Charm with Stone Egg

A detailed 9ct yellow gold egg cup charm holding a small carved stone “egg.” A character piece with clear vintage workmanship.

The gold cup is decorated with hand-engraved raised scrollwork, giving it a rich texture and a solid presence despite its small size. The loop handle and flared base are well-formed, and the proportions are balanced. The carved stone egg sits neatly inside the cup, adding a soft contrast in both colour and texture. This charm was originally believed to have been enamelled in its past, but has since been affected by the passage of time.

This is an uncommon style of charm - quirky, well-made, and clearly crafted with intention rather than mass production. It works well on a bracelet or worn as a small pendant.

In very good vintage condition with light, age-consistent wear and a secure suspension loop.
