History of Cufflinks

Since the invention of shirt like items in the early 18th Century, visible areas of this clothing like Neck, Chest and Sleeves became sites of decorative elements, where the sleeves were secured with a simple ribbons or buttons.

In the early 19th Century, a highly conventional wardrobe with a formal attire of dark suit, dinner jacket and tailcoat, ruled out the option of ribbons and called for some conventional styles in cufflinks. By the mid 19th Century, modern cufflinks had become popular. Few royalties introduced precious gemstones with classic cufflink designs, by carrying them with some great deal of confidence. The development has continued since then with introduction of colours, geometrical patterns, sportier bold styles, different materials and so on.
