A refined pair of German Jugendstil chain-link cufflinks, featuring rounded rectangular facings decorated with finely die-struck naturalistic grain textures and diagonal bands of repeating rosette motifs. Their asymmetrical division and stylised ornament are distinctly Jugendstil in character. Each facing is set with a crisply faceted ruby-red paste-glass stone, mounted à jour to admit light through the reverse and create a vivid play of colour within. Short lengths of chain connect the decorated facings to polished elongated backs, allowing them to pass easily through the cuff. The luminous red stones contrast beautifully against the warm gold-plated finish, while the flowing geometry and naturalistic textures lend the pair a particularly elegant German Jugendstil character.
The facings measure 1,8 x 1 cm and use a chain connection to insert the cufflinks into your cuffs.
These are in perfect antique condition. No major visible dents or scratches. Quality gold-plating! Fully cleaned an ready to wear!
