An homage to the classic railroad handcar, this piece features wheels that actually spin and a handle that moves, imbuing the charm with a playful sense of realism. Its articulate design brings a touch of nostalgia, reminiscent of a bygone era when rail was king and handcars dotted the landscape. The charm's intricate details are a testament to the skilled craftsmanship of the period, making it a treasured piece for collectors or a charming addition to any bracelet or necklace, sure to spark conversations and admirationHallmarks: hallmarked 14kMetals: 13k-14k gold(For vintage and antique pieces, gold karat purity is provided as a range.

All grading is done as per mounting limitations. Carat weight is calculated by formula, and diamond and gemstone weights and grades are approximate (unless otherwise noted). Color gemstones are not tested for enhancement treatments (unless otherwise noted), Since it is standard practice for colored gemstones to undergo treatments, it is reasonable to assume that such enhancements may have been appliedMetalsAll items are tested using our preferred and time-tested method of nitric acid testing (unless specified otherwise). Each item is tested in several places. Karat weight may be represented as a range if an item tests differently in different spots. Please note that there may be some variation to metals due to testing not being possible in certain unreachable spots or due to older solder.PhotographyPlease note that colors and dimensions may vary on different size/quality screens and in different lighting.
