Art Nouveau Lion Cufflinks

As with all fine jewels,  you should carefully examine the reverse of antique cufflinks.  These cufflinks have sturdy bean backs attached to the fronts with deeply curved split bridges.  The flare of the bridges assures that the links rest safely on the cuff and remain horizontal.

These cufflinks were created in the early 1900s by the jewelry makers Larter & Sons.  Founded in 1865, Larter & Sons has crafted distinctive gentleman's jewelry for nearly 150 years.  The cufflinks are stamped on the top of the bridge "14K" for the purity of the gold.  Just to the right of the gold mark is the maker's mark for Larter & Sons, a profile of a shirt stud patented by the firm in 1898.
