Hasbro Lady Slipper Charmkins Ballerina Charm & Wrist Dancer Attachment

This vintage Charmkins toy is the Lady Slipper Ballerina Wrist Dancer. It includes Lady Slipper, a ballet dancer with blonde hair wearing a pink tutu and ballet slippers and a flower-shaped base that was originally attached to a bracelet. The flower has a wind-up mechanism on the side so she could stand on top and spin.

This set originally came with a bracelet made of green ribbon that would fit through the loops on the back of the wind-up flower, but that piece is missing. There’s a wind-up handle on the side that would make the center peg spin, but as is common with old wind-up toys that would often get over-wound, it no longer works.

There’s some yellowing on the white plastic of the flower petals, but the set is otherwise in good condition and is still scented.

Lady Slipper has a hole on the bottom so she can fit onto the peg on the Wrist Dancer or in the Charmkins Jewelry Carry Case.

The back of the wrist piece and the bottom of Lady Slipper are both marked “1983 Hasbro.”
