Antique Platinum and Gold Cufflinks

The backs are wonderfully crafted in 14kt yellow gold polished to a bright finish.  Note the sturdy brackets and cross bars that secure these links on your cuff.  The brackets and cross bars were specially designed for Durand & Company and protected in a patent issued on May 26, 1908. 

Durand & Company was one of the preeminent maker's of fine cufflinks and jewelry from the mid 1800s until the firm closed in the 1930s.  The maker's mark of Durand & Company, a stylized "D", is visible to the left of the "14 K" gold mark.  The precious metal mark for platinum ("PLAT") is visible just below the brackets.
