English term or phrase: charms
How would you translate "charms"? this is not a charm bracelet, but a charm on a keyring, sold by a fashion company. Would it be Glueckbringer/Reize?

Explanation:
This is how it has been translated frequently on the fashion websites I translate for. The advantage: this translation is more flexible as to the actual object or symbol used.

Explanation:
Ich denke, dein eigener Vorschlag "Glücksbringer" ist recht gut. Manchmal sagt man wohl auch "Talisman"
