Art Nouveau Grape Vine Cufflinks
Grape Vines! |
|
Art Noveau artists embraced sinuous, whiplash curves inspired by nature and drawn from imagination. These elegant gold cufflinks featuring entwining grape vines are a wonderful example. Ideal for your next Bacchanalian fête or formal wine tasting. Crafted in 14kt gold, circa 1900.
![]() 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 maker Larter & Sons. 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.
