Men’s Vintage Cufflinks Great for a Holiday Gift



Evolving from the silk ties that held together the ruffled sleeves of royalty, it was Louis the Great who directed royal jewelers to make the jump from elegant silk bands to gold links. The French king enjoyed heavily jeweled pieces as well as solid gold ornamentation. Although this type of accessory is usually for formal wear, the man about town knows that having a set or two on hand is a sign of sophistication and status. Peter Suchy makes it easy to own men’s vintage cufflinks.

Tiffany & Co. Yellow Gold Buttons 

 


These cufflinks have been authenticated to have been designed for Larter. Made of 14k yellow gold, they were manufactured between 1950 and 1960. The button portion measures .75 inches in diameter. The clip-back design makes wear easy.

Onyx and Green Hard-stone Inlay Circles

 


Fashioned from 14k yellow gold, these vintage pieces feature onyx as well as green hard-stone in a round inlay. The hinged clip back lets you add them to your wardrobe quickly and on the move. The inlay attractively complements green or brown eyes. Use the color play and inlay shape to play off a tie pattern.

Carved Carnelian Roman Soldier Links

 


For the professor, curator or man with an affinity for the bygone era of the Roman Empire, these 14k yellow gold cufflinks are a must-have. Featuring a carved carnelian, the profile of a Roman soldier is beautifully detailed. From side to side, each link measures .92 inches. From top to bottom, the measurement is .72 inches.

Larter & Sons Yellow Gold and Sapphire Cufflinks 

 


The 14k yellow gold settings hold natural sapphires. The total weight of the stones is .30cts. These links feature the Larter & Sons stamp and come with a GIA certificate. The startling blue color of the sapphires beautifully plays off the gold of the setting. These links are sure attention-getters and identify the wearer as a man of good taste and means.

Black Star Sapphire and Diamond Cufflinks

 


The jeweler has chosen 14k white gold as the setting material and backdrop for the display of the black star sapphires. Weighing in at 4.00cts, these stones are augmented by the beauty of 24 single-cut diamonds with a total weight of .40cts. Made in the 1950s, these links feature an understated elegance that suits a man in a position of authority.
