Evening all,

I'm looking to get some more cufflinks, and I really fancy something lovely and art-deco as this is by far my favourite design period. I have seen these ones on a website of a Jewellers, however according to the description they appear to be a one-off for a wealthy client:

This is a shame as I absolutely love them - but much googling along the lines of "art deco" and streamlined" and "vintage" etc hasn't yielded anything at all similar that I can actually buy. Can any of the PH sartorial experts recommend something visually similar?

Thanks in advance!


(PS. Yes, I'm being serious. No, I wouldn't appreciate this thread going the same way as any fashion advice ones normally go for me)

Call the jeweller and ask them to make you something similar.

Might be a bit chunky but I'm sure you can pull them of CC.

Thanks chaps

I've just spent a very long time on that etsy site!

One thing that it eventually led me to was a set of polished meteorite slice cufflinks... only downside being that they're £170. They're uber cool, but not quite 170 quid cool!

What will you wear them with?

Red trousers?

Cowboy hat?

Both?

I can't think of a single occasion (that requires cufflinks) where those would be acceptable.

That’s kind of why I got them. My company have put me in a situation where I cannot resign and they can’t sack me so fk them.

This is where I buy some of my clothing for events. www.zootsuitstore.com

Some of the suits are a little OTT whilst others and accessories are just perfect.

I guess I'm just making the point that if wearing novelty cufflinks is the only way you're showing your dissatisfaction they may not have noticed :-)

If people don't notice cufflinks then it doesn't matter if they are novelty or not.

Don't worry im making my dissatisfaction very well known in other ways.
