Vintage 1938 Sunday Races Horseshoe Key Winder Charm

Vintage 1938 Sunday Races Horseshoe Key Winder Charm A wonderfully unusual vintage key winder charm dating to 1938, featuring a blue enamel horseshoe framed in warm gold-tone metal. Inscribed “Special Sunday Race, H.H.Y.C., 1938 (Minero N.Y.)”, this diminutive piece has wonderful equestrian character and the added interest of its original commemorative inscription. Designed as a functional key winder, pieces like this were once used for winding pocket watches and small mechanical timepieces. Today, it makes a distinctive addition to a favorite chain, charm necklace, or collection of antique and vintage equestrian jewelry. We especially love the combination of the blue enamel horseshoe and its beautifully aged gold-tone finish—a tiny piece of history with plenty of character. Vintage condition with age-appropriate wear and patina. Please refer to photographs for additional condition details. Charm only. Chain not included. Arrives ready to gift in a blue velvet jewelry pouch.
