he Links of London Green Enamel Heart Charm (catalogue reference 5030.1409) is one of the most striking variations from the brand’s enamel heart series. Crafted in sterling silver and finished with a translucent green enamel coating, it showcases the brand’s ability to experiment with surface colour while maintaining a clean, sculptural silhouette.

Unlike opaque enamels used on earlier heart charms, this design features a semi-transparent enamel layer that allows the silver beneath to reflect light through the colour. The result is an iridescent green tone that shifts between metallic and glass-like depending on the light — a finish that feels both playful and sophisticated.

Design and Construction

This domed heart measures 16 mm wide, 12 mm high, 16 mm high including the jump ring, and 8 mm thick. It hangs from the brand’s standard 9 mm × 7 mm oval bail, hallmarked with the Links of London three-ring logo and LL 925 sponsor’s mark, with a 2010 date letter confirming its vintage origin.

The charm has been professionally cleaned and polished. The enamel remains in very good condition for its age, showing no visible surface damage. Beneath the enamel, the silver has developed faint subsurface patina, adding a natural depth and character that collectors often prize in vintage enamel pieces.

Colour and Craft

The translucent enamel technique used on this charm is particularly rare among the Links of London range. While most enamel hearts were finished in opaque red, pink, or black tones, this vibrant green example allows light to pass through, echoing the plique-à-jour style of traditional glass enamelling. It blurs the line between metal and colour, producing a vivid hue that feels alive under natural light.

Each enamel heart was produced individually, meaning subtle variations in tone, thickness, and transparency are unique to each piece. The reflective quality of the underlying silver ensures that no two charms ever appear quite the same.

Collectability and Legacy

The Green Enamel Heart Charm holds a distinctive place within the wider Links of London enamel charm family. Its bright, translucent finish makes it one of the less common colourways, appealing to collectors seeking variety beyond the standard palette.

With its combination of hallmarked silver, vivid enamel, and signature Links bail, this charm represents the brand’s flair for transforming everyday motifs into pieces of miniature jewellery art. Today, examples of the green enamel heart remain desirable for both their aesthetic appeal and their rarity within the enamel charm range.
