Compact yet weighty in style, it’s cast in solid sterling silver with hallmarking that confirms its 2007 vintage. The body is uncoloured — unlike other enamelled models — allowing the clean polish and shape to speak for itself.

Each piece was originally sold with a split ring for easy attachment to Sweetie bracelets — though it also looks equally at home on a charm necklace or travel-themed bangle.
A Note on Variants
It’s worth noting that some sellers confuse this British taxi charm with a separate yellow enamel “NYC taxi” model — a different Links of London charm altogether. The version seen here is entirely silver, representing the traditional London black cab in form, not colour. This distinction is important for collectors and fans of the brand.
