Vintage Links of London Lucky Knickers Charm

Links of London Lucky Knickers Charm, Sterling Silver, Hallmarked 2010

A playful and recognisable design from Links of London, the Lucky Knickers charm combines humour with detailed silver craftsmanship. Formed as a miniature pair of women’s knickers, the charm features a bow detail on the front, with the words “Lucky Knickers” engraved across the reverse.

This example is crafted in sterling silver and carries the Links of London sponsor’s mark (LL), 925 fineness mark, and a date letter for 2010. The engraving was originally filled with black enamel, designed to emphasise the lettering. Over time, a noticeable amount of this enamel has been lost, leaving the engraving fully visible but without its original contrast.

The charm has been professionally cleaned and polished. However, due to the enamel loss and additional surface wear, it is correctly described as well used and in poor vintage condition. The underlying engraving remains crisp and legible, and the form of the charm is unaffected.

Fitted with the standard Links of London oval bail, the charm is compatible with bracelets and necklaces, including Sweetie bracelets when used with the supplied split ring.
