Cufflinks with Sotheby’s





Cufflinks for men made by the big names in jewelry: they are auctioned by Sotheby’s ♦ ︎

Cufflinks are probably the only kind of twins that does not worry a man. On the contrary, the jewels as buttons used to close the cuffs of the shirts are coveted by many, exhibited by some, sought after by others. In short, even if the shirts that need the twins are reserved for a minority, it is not said that in the men’s wardrobe there is not some head of this kind. Not to mention that even some women like to experience the thrill of a shirt with cufflinks.

From 19 to 29 October Sotheby’s sells a collection of one hundred cufflinks online.
