Links of London Lucky Catch Oyster Shell Charm in Sterling Silver with Pearl

This Links of London charm takes the form of an oyster shell, enclosing a concealed freshwater pearl — a design that reflects the house’s interest in objects associated with discovery, symbolism, and the idea of hidden detail.

Crafted in sterling silver and hallmarked with the Links of London maker’s mark alongside 925 and a date letter for 2010, the shell is formed with layered ridges that echo the natural structure of an oyster. The pearl, measuring approximately 4mm, is set within the interior, creating a contrast between the textured outer surface and the smooth, polished element within.

The charm measures approximately 14mm in width, 19mm in height including the jump ring, and 12mm in thickness, giving it a compact but fully formed presence. It is fitted with the standard Links of London oval bail measuring approximately 8mm by 7mm, suitable for bracelets or necklaces up to 5mm in width.

This example has been professionally cleaned and presents in good vintage condition, with light signs of age consistent with careful use. It is supplied with a sterling silver split ring, allowing for straightforward attachment to a Sweetie bracelet or similar charm carrier.
