Victorian Mixed-Metal Oval Cufflinks with Floral and Graphic Etching (LEO Design)

 

Queen Victoria reigned from 1837 to 1901—an era well-represented in our collection of handsome cufflinks.  For the rest of the month, we'll be sharing some of these Victorian cufflinks offerings, many of them recently acquired.  Click here to see all of the cufflinks at LEO Design. 

This pair of American Victorian cufflinks are a dynamic swirl of floral engraving, etched graphics and an energetic, circling border meant to contain all the motion and energy.  They were made around 1900 in Providence, Rhode Island—a powerhouse of American jewelry manufacturing in the late Nineteenth and early Twentieth Centuries.  They are signed "Parks Brothers & Rogers" which operated from 1892 until 1930.  Please click on the photo above to learn more about them.
