Cufflinks - information and advice Cufflinks are decorative items of jewellery traditionally worn by men for fastening shirt cuffs that do not button. Cuffs that need fastening with cufflinks are typically found on smart dress and formal shirts. Cufflinks consist of two ends, one or both of which may be decorative (more usually one end is decorative and the other end is a fastener), attached by a post or chain. The post or chain is threaded through the holes in the cuff to attach them together. |

Cufflink History Cufflinks are a relatively recent innovation, appearing during the seventeenth century and becoming increasingly popular with gentlemen towards the end of the nineteenth century, as an individual way of marking their own style. Formal and day wear of the era gave little scope for individualism. At the beginning of the 20th century, the larger jewellery companies such as Tiffany became involved in their manufacture. In 1924, the standard cufflink fastening of a pivoting anchor between two posts was invented by The Boyer Company. This fastening is still the main type of fastener in use today. |

An alternative fastening to cufflinks is to have silk knot fastenings (see picture to the left). Silk knot fastenings tend to be cheaper than traditional cuff links but do the job just as well.
