The little figure has a rounded wooden head, engraved with a shamrock on the forehead, and articulated arms designed to lift towards the head in the traditional ‘touch wood’ gesture. His silver body is stamped ‘FUMSUP’, while the playful proportions and tiny wing-like details at his feet give him plenty of character. Measuring just 30mm and weighing 1.8g, he is a wonderfully tactile little charm, with the wear and patina one would expect from a piece of this age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFumsup charms became particularly popular during the First World War, when small lucky tokens were given to soldiers by sweethearts and family members. Their clever design combined the raised thumbs of the ‘Fumsup’ gesture with a wooden head for ‘touch wood’, effectively putting two good-luck traditions into one tiny talisman. This example remains in great condition considering its age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFun fact: The Fumsup was not simply a novelty charm: wartime advertisements specifically promoted it as a lucky gift for soldiers. Its wooden head was intended to be touched for luck, while the raised thumbs added another auspicious gesture — making this tiny figure quite literally a double dose of good fortune.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore specs below:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e• measures 30mm in height (35mm with the jump ring)\u003cbr\u003e• the wooden head measures \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e10mm\u003cbr\u003e• the charm weighs 1.8g\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, the charm is in great condition considering its age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWill arrive in a little white box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI post all my UK orders via Royal Mail Special Delivery.

His articulated silver-coloured body is modelled with raised thumbs, while the 10mm wooden head allowed the wearer to literally “touch wood” for luck. The charm is finished with a shamrock stamped onto the forehead and two remarkably well-preserved tiny glass eyes, each measuring just 0.8mm. The articulated arms and carefully modelled hands give him plenty of personality, while the wooden head has developed a lovely aged patina over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe registration number impressed to the reverse is associated with 1914, placing this little fellow at the beginning of the period when Fumsups became especially popular as lucky talismans during the First World War.
