Gum Ball Machine Charm Sterling Silver | Children Jewelry | Made in USA

A gumball machine — glass globe packed with gumballs, coin slot, and dispensing chute — cast in 2.8 grams of solid .925 sterling silver and Made in USA. This 3D charm is a miniature time machine to childhood.

After lost-wax casting, each gumball machine is individually hand-finished. The round globe, stacked gumballs, pedestal base, and coin mechanism are polished through progressive compounds — an 8-hour process per batch that brings every detail to a mirror shine.

The first gumball machine was patented in 1907, and by the mid-20th century, they stood in the lobby of every grocery store, barbershop, and five-and-dime in America. A penny bought a gumball and a moment of anticipation — would you get the red one? This charm measures 3/8" x 3/4". A sterling silver jump ring comes included and attached.

A sweet gift for nostalgia lovers, candy collectors, retro enthusiasts, or anyone who remembers tugging on a parent's sleeve for a penny. Makes a playful pendant, a fun bracelet charm, or a pair of earrings with a matching twin.
