Portuguese 'May God Protect You' Charm of 19.2k Gold

A sentimental charm (circa 1920-1930), crafted in luminous 19.2k gold and decorated with a Portuguese phrase in blue enamel that translates to “May God protect you.” The puffy heart silhouette, combined with the tender inscription, reflects the rich tradition of early 20th-century devotional and love-token jewelry.

The charm measures approximately 0.8 inches from the top of the bail to the bottom by 0.55 inches wide and weighs 0.85 grams.

The gold has been professionally verified using XRF (X-ray fluorescence) analysis and confirmed with jeweler’s acid testing, authenticating its 19.2k composition. In excellent antique condition, this piece is a meaningful and beautifully preserved example of Portuguese sentimental jewelry, perfect for collectors who appreciate heartfelt inscriptions and high-karat gold artistry.
