This 14k gold swordfish charm has a great classic shape and gorgeous blue enamel on the fins. The blue enamel is transparent enough to see the texture of the gold underneath it, giving the fish’s dorsal fin an added layer of depth. Enamel also dots the eye of the fish, and tiny engravings denote its gills. Circa the 1930’s or 1940’s, this a cute little retro charm with a great pop of blue.
The swordfish is one of the most powerful fish in the sea—infamous for being difficult to catch and putting up a good fight. They symbolize strength, speed, adventure, and agility. This makes a great talisman for someone who is a fighter; this powerful fish is a reminder of unwavering strength.
The charm weighs 1.7 grams. It measures 5/8” x 3/4” plus a 4 x 6 mm bail. Marked on the back as 14k, with the initials C + B.
