Vintage 9ct Yellow Gold Football Charm Pendant – Chester 1957

A wonderful piece of sporting history, this vintage 9ct yellow gold football charm dates to 1957 and celebrates Britain's enduring love of the beautiful game. Beautifully preserved and professionally polished, the charm forms part of our carefully selected pre-loved jewellery collection and is presented in excellent condition.

Crafted in solid 9ct yellow gold, the football measures approximately 11.5mm in diameter and weighs around 1 gram. Its finely detailed panelled design faithfully recreates the appearance of a traditional leather football, making it an instantly recognisable keepsake for football enthusiasts and collectors alike.

Dating from 1957, this charming piece was created almost a decade before England's historic 1966 FIFA World Cup victory, adding a fascinating layer of sporting nostalgia. It is hallmarked by the historic Chester Assay Office, one of Britain's oldest assay offices, which permanently closed in 1962, making Chester-hallmarked jewellery increasingly sought after by collectors.

The charm bears the maker's mark W.H.C, together with the Chester hallmark and 375 gold standard confirming 9ct gold purity. A polished jump ring is included, allowing the charm to be worn immediately on a necklace or added to a favourite charm bracelet.

Whether purchased as a gift for a lifelong football supporter, a collector of vintage gold charms or someone with a passion for sporting memorabilia, this beautifully crafted football charm represents a timeless symbol of one of the world's most loved sports.

Its compact proportions make it ideal for everyday wear while its historic Chester hallmark and pre-1962 provenance add genuine collectable appeal.
