I do not usually collect men's jewelry, or "mantiques," but I do like charms, so here is an interesting sterling silver piece marked "HJ Sterling." I could not find any information on this maker after extensive online research, but believe it is from the 1930s or 40s. This item is a fraternal "key fob" that was likely attached to a pocket watch. These charms were very popular during the Victorian Era of the late 1800s.
Feel free to contact me if you are interested in purchasing this piece. Questions, comments, and additional information are always appreciated. My online shop on http://www.rubylane.com/ is coming soon.
