Or these, can combine with watch Appreciation thread!Originally Posted by borderline
Someone emailed me this from Etsy so I assume you two are both reading the same Digg-like site. Frankly, I think they're terrible. They're not steampunk in anyway as the seller claims. Plus they're gigantic (2/3 inch, 20 mm) and one-sided. Perhaps the most important reason why double-sided links are superiour is that it places a limitation on how large each side can be. Any jackass can find a huge cog wheel, coin, subway token, etc. and solder on a toggle and call it a cuff link.
Here you go. Colour is not quite right in the photo - they are silver.Originally Posted by California Dreamer
Ah, very interesting. Are you ready for 2012?

A pair of smoked MOP cufflinks to alternate with the plain ones I got last month.

Here are some odds and ends I've picked up recently from EBay.
b
New links. I like the button feature. They are a bit worn, though.
Here's a new tie bar. Thoughts? Is it genuine art deco-era?
Finally, there's this. What is it? It was advertised as a tie clasp. It's waaaay too small. It's about the size of one snap cufflink (length and width). Lapel pin of sorts? What is it?

I got bored this weekend. Since I have immense trouble finding double-sided cufflinks, I decided to make my own. I raided the wife's button box and, with some brass rings and pliers, I produced these in about 10 minutes.

My latest and last (well, for now) stud box. This one went a bit higher than I wanted, but I couldn't resist. It was made in England for Saks. I believe it's pigskin, and it has a suede interior. I'm very pleased with it.

Nice. In some of the bigger cities there are sewing notions/dressmakers supply stores that carry a selection of beautiful buttons, In some cases they are vintage as well as beautiful. Well done Dreamer.

I think it's a button cover. You slide it over a cuff button to decorate the button and make it appear as if you have a link.
