A pair of antique 9 carat gold double-sided cufflinks from the turn of the twentieth century — effortlessly elegant, tactile, and full of quiet character.
 
Each cufflink features one oval end in warm 9 carat rose gold, engraved and chased with a graceful foliate motif, and the other in classic 9 carat yellow gold, engraved and chased with delicate floral detail. They are linked by a solid 9ct gold chain, allowing the wearer the choice of which tone to display — rose or yellow — depending on the day’s attire.
 
The yellow gold ends bear clear British hallmarks for Chester, 1900–1901, and the rose gold counterparts exhibit comparable craftsmanship and partial marks consistent with early Edwardian manufacture. A subtle story of reassembly lies within: these began life as two near-matching pairs, almost certainly made by the same jeweller, whose chains were later reworked to unite them into this unique and elegant set.
 
Such thoughtful adaptation only adds to their charm — a fine reminder that authentic antiques evolve over time, just as their owners do. In excellent condition and full of quiet confidence, these exceptional cufflinks make a refined and personal gift for the discerning gentleman — a truly one of a kind offering, presenting a glimpse of a bygone era with every turn of the wrist.
