Classic Horseshoe Charm - Gold Stainless Steel Enamel - 13.3x16.6mm
A Horse Inside Its Own Good Luck
A gold-tone stainless steel horseshoe with a horse's head modelled inside the curve, mane raised, facing left. The band of the shoe is filled with rectangular enamel blocks in four colours - red, yellow, green and lilac - set like nail holes round the arc. It measures 13.3mm wide by 16.6mm tall.
At 1.7g it has enough body to sit steady on a bracelet. The reverse repeats the whole design - the same horseshoe, the same horse head, the same four enamel colours - so there is no wrong way round to wear it.

Choose Charm only to add it to a bracelet you already own. Charm + Clasp adds a small lobster clasp so it clips straight on - no pliers, no open links - and it works just as well on a bag, a zip pull, a keyring or a watch strap. Charm + Gold Bracelet or Charm + Silver Bracelet pairs it with our Gold or Silver Paperclip Chain Bracelet - fine-gauge stainless steel, adjustable from 16cm to 20cm. Bought as a set they cost 30% less than buying separately.
The horseshoe is protective before it is lucky. Iron was believed to repel malevolent spirits across northern Europe, and a shoe nailed above a door did that job long before anyone thought of it as fortune. The open-end-up argument - that luck pours out if you hang it down - is a Victorian addition, not an ancient rule. A gift for her who could use a run of good luck.

The colour is enamel fused to the metal rather than stones set into it, so nothing can fall out - but enamel chips where a stone would only scratch. Keep it away from hard knocks, keys and door frames, and away from bleach, acetone and perfume sprayed directly onto it. A soft damp cloth and a dry off. Full guidance at our Stainless Steel Care Card and the JewelCare™ hub.
FAQs
1. Are the colours enamel or stones?
Enamel, in four colours. There are no stones on this charm, so nothing can work loose - the trade-off is that enamel can chip on a hard knock.
2. Is the back the same as the front?
Yes. The horseshoe, the horse head and all four enamel colours repeat on the reverse, so it reads correctly whichever way it turns on a bracelet.
3. Can the back be engraved?
No - the reverse carries the full design rather than a plain panel.
4. Which way up should a horseshoe be worn?
Both are traditional. Ends up is said to hold luck in, ends down to pour it over you. Since this one is modelled on both sides it settles whichever way it likes. More at our JewelMotif™ page.
5. Does it arrive gift-ready?
Yes - every order is packed to give. See JewelGift™.
How to Style the Horseshoe
It carries four colours at once, so it sets the palette for whatever sits beside it - keep its neighbours plain gold and let the enamel do the work. Hang it on a DuoTone™ or FortunaLink™ bracelet, browse the whole MiniCharm™ range, or start your stack at JewelBuild™.
