Why hunt for anything? Actually - all I gotta do it open a drawer here, or a cupboard door and I can find something vintage, old or collectable.
This is my 1970's Sterling Charm Bracelet I got as a Birthday gift for Sweet 16 ( 1976 ). It was empty with only that Charm on it. After that I collected some others, got some as gifts, and got some from people that had traveled somewhere and would bring me back a charm. It has about 23 charms on it now.
Some of the charms are (and all Sterling Silver):
~ Grad
~ Snowflake
~ Bucking Horse
~ Sask Prairie Province
~ Ohio State
~ Cooking/food/utensils
~ Nebraska State
~ Church one - Catholic
~ Letter A
~ Christmas Tree
~ Large Horse
~ Cowboy Boot - North Dakota
~ Horse Head
~ Sweet 16 (Yes I was once...LOL)
~ Montana State
~ Birth Stone - Topaz - November
~ Totem Pole B.C Province
~ Lady Bug
Plus have some other ones to still put on after all these years:
~ Diploma for Barbering
~ Horse Shoes for Good Luck
~ Grad Cap
~ Xmas Ornament
~ Hearts - two
~ etc
All are sterling -- and marked. Now these are Collectible...LOL
And all the lovelier for the charms being personal to you.
Jingly!
A great lot of charms but the bracelet itself is beautiful too.
I love this bracelet... So fun...
Wonderful! I love the way they sound when worn.
(Almost reminds me of Middlesex but that's a reference for the bookworms, lol.)
Thanks for all the loves:

I think we had the attitude back then -- the more charms you had (the more you jingled...lol) the more you were liked/loved/appreciated.
Kinda like CW is here with likes/loves -- but the 1970's Charm bracelet was a old School way to do that......LOL
OH - IO
*Also will mention - it was from * THE HUDSON BAY COMPANY * as I still have the White Case that has Gold lettering inside on Satin that it is from the Hudson Bay. I always keep it in its original Case
Thanks for the ~ LOVES ~
