Golden Links - VII


English Art Deco 9 Karat Gold Cufflinks with Tight Basketweave Texturing (LEO Design)

 

This week we are sharing some of our favorite gold and gold-content cufflinks—handsome and tasteful accessories for the well-tailored man.

The tightly-woven "basketweave" pattern on these English Art Deco cufflinks is so tiny that the weaving looks more like a texture than sculpture—creating a "no pattern pattern." They are made of 9 karat gold—a value which is pretty low.  What these cufflinks don't possess in intrinsic (material) value, they make-up for in strength and durability.  24 karat (that is, pure) gold is very soft; lower karat values ensure that the metal is durable and will hold-up to use (especially on the end of a moving wrist).  Click on the photo above to learn more about these handsome cufflinks.

More Golden Links tomorrow and in the days to come.
