Charbens is a prominent name in the vintage toy industry, particularly noted for its diecast miniature models. Wielding a major influence in the world of lead toy production, the brand is renowned for its wide array of products such as vehicles, farm and circus figures, wild West models, and railway figures. Known for their dedication to fine aesthetics, intricate detailing, and meticulous craftsmanship, Charbens serves both as a playground for nostalgic childhood memories and a testament to the exquisite art of toy making.

Charbens holds an unrivaled position in the annals of toy history since its inception in the bustling heart of London in 1925. The brainchild of Alfred and Charles Bone, who cleverly christened the brand by combining their names, the company swiftly captivated the hearts of young and old alike. They journeyed through the twentieth-century toy industry's changing trends and, in the process, reshaped and defined these trends themselves. An interesting fact is that the company initially started its operations from a humble basement before making a mark on the international toy stage.
