Description

We love this miniature regal charm. It shows one of HM The Queen's Life Guards in his sentry box. The Queen’s Life Guard is conducted by soldiers of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment at Horse Guards. The Queen’s Life Guard have existed since the Restoration of King Charles II in 1660. Every weekday, whatever the season or weather, members of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment ride down from Hyde Park Barracks in Knightsbridge to take over guard duties at 11:00am for the next twenty–four hours. This soldier even moves - on a tiny spring!

It was made in 1968 in London by Georg Jensen Ltd.

This charm would be ideal for anyone who loves royalty, has a connection with the army, or someone who simply needs a soldier in their life!

FAQ

Do you offer layaway? Can I pay in instalments?

Yes! We have different ways of doing layaways.

Paypal is most popular or via bank transfer. We try to be as flexible as possible, so if you tell us what you need, we will agree the layaway terms on a case by case basis with you.

We usually offer a PayPal invoice over the period of 3 months, but can happily extend to 6 months if needed. We do not charge interest for instalment payments. Paypal invoice allows you to pay a partial payment whenever is convenient for you.


A 20% up front, non refundable, deposit is required to hold the item, and this counts towards the item total. Payment is then made over the following weeks and the final payment must be made by the agreed end date.

Please note, items bought on layaway are returnable, but the deposit is non refundable. Items are shipped once payment is completed. If payment is not made within the agreed time frame, we will try to work with you to agree a solution, but reserve the right to refund your money (bar the deposit) and re-list the item Please contact us directly to discuss further.

Does it come with a certificate?

Yes, we provide a Parkin & Gerrish certificate with your purchase.

All of our jewellery is checked and examined in house by Zuleika who is a professional gemologist and a FGA (Fellow of the Gemmology Association) and DGA (Diamond Member of the Gemmological Association).
The Parkin & Gerrish certificate is perfect to give to your insurance company along with a copy of the invoice. Please note, the certificate we provide is not a gemological certificate.


Some of our higher end jewellery will come with accredited gemological/diamond certification from a lab. If it does, it will be mentioned in the description. If it has not been lab certified, it is possible to provide such a certificate from a reputable London gemological lab. There is an additional non refundable charge for this, approximately £80 - 120 + VAT. Please get in touch with us to find out more.
