Victorian cufflinks

Since their creation, cufflinks have been seen as a symbol of status for gentlemen with luxury gold and gemstone cufflinks seen as a symbol of wealth, power and reputation. Some traditions from the history of cufflinks still remain today. Cufflinks are often given as gifts, especially for the groomsman at a wedding or to celebrate a graduation ceremony. Although styles and materials may have changed, the cufflink has been a staple part of high society and fashion as a symbol of status.
