Vintage Links of London Lipstick Charm Necklace Sterling Silver Red Enamel

One of our most recognisable miniature designs, the Lipstick Charm captures the glamour of the make-up counter in precious metal form. In this version, we present the original charm as a finished necklace, suspended from a sterling silver oval link chain with a bolt ring clasp. The result is a complete piece that can be worn immediately while still retaining the flexibility that made our charm designs so collectible.

The charm itself is crafted in sterling silver and detailed with rich red enamel at the tip. This example is New Old Stock, remaining unused and unpolished, with the enamel fully intact. It measures approximately 16mm in length, 20mm including the jump ring, and approximately 4.5mm in width. The standard oval Links of London bail measures approximately 9mm by 7mm, carries the three-ring logo, and is suitable for bracelets or necklaces up to 5mm wide.

The necklace is fitted with a 2mm wide sterling silver oval link chain and a 5mm diameter bolt ring clasp. Because the charm is attached through the clasp, it may be removed, changed or worn with other compatible charms if desired. That makes this piece more than a fixed pendant necklace. It is a finished necklace with the versatility to sit within a wider charm collection.

The bail is laser-marked RV 925, a mark found on several final production pieces. Together with the original SKU 5030.0349, this confirms the charm as a genuine late-production example of the design. This piece originates from our official liquidation stock and remains especially appealing because of its untouched New Old Stock condition and fully intact enamel.

Worn at the neck, the Lipstick Charm takes on a slightly different character from its bracelet form. Its small scale and vivid enamel tip give it a playful but polished presence, while the silver body keeps the design clean and graphic. It works particularly well as a standalone pendant, but the removable format also leaves open the possibility of changing the look over time with other compatible charms.

This necklace is supplied as a complete ready-to-wear piece. The charm remains original, and the chain format offers an elegant way to wear one of our late Links of London designs as a necklace rather than solely as a bracelet charm. A choice of chain lengths is available when ordering.
