Good sources for stud/links sets

[dah328]

I've been looking for an understated set of studs and links (either new or vintage), something along the lines of silver with onyx or mother of pearl inlays. Given the number of cufflinks available on ebay, I would have thought they would have lots of stud/link sets, but they really don't. Any suggestions on good sources for these?

Have you had a look at Longmire? http://www.longmire.co.uk/ Dress sets

Ask for Michael Rodriguez, the owner. Tell him I recommended you.

Thanks, Tom. I'd forgotten your past mention of the Missing Link. I have seen Longmire's stuff, but I was hoping to keep the price in the triple digits.

Try M P Levene in London-I haven't dealt with them but they have some beautiful work.

I have to put in a good word for Michael. I had never seen so many cufflinks before in my life. He was very helpful in helping me look for a cufflinks and studs set, and happily I found exactly what I was looking for. The next time I am in the mood for some new cufflinks, the only place I will be heading is to Michael's shop.

Thanks for the tip, Tom.

I've been looking for something similar as well. Here are some ideas in addition to those posted above:

http://www.trocadero.com/directory/E...cessories.html
http://www.goantiques.com/ (search "cufflinks studs")
http://www.cufflinks-vintage.com/

http://www.cuff-cuff.co.uk/ (classic, variety of settings and stones, including onyx)

And I'm really taken with some of the glass ones. Check out:

http://www.cuffart.com/elizabeth_parker_cufflinks.htm (onyx and MOP at bottom)

I will probably buy a set of glass ones from this guy, there are several that would work with a tuxedo:
