Engraved Cufflinks > Hand Engraved Cufflinks

   

No machine can replicate the beauty of hand engraved cufflinks.
We start with the finest designer sterling silver cufflinks, which are then hand engraved by skilled artisans in Avignon, France.
The process dates back to the 17th century... and can take up to four hours to complete.  What makes the process so tedious is that
no power tools are used.  Instead, artists must use only hand tools, brute force, and decades of engraving experience to complete each design.
The result is a blend of old world craftsmanship, and an astounding pair of cufflinks made especially for you!

We really enjoy monogram designs that were popular during the turn of the century through the 1950's.
The designs you see below are from this period and have an enduring, timeless quality about them.

In addition to our hand engraved cufflinks, we also offer machine engraved cufflinks:

Machine Engraved Cufflinks


Step 1 of 4
Choose a set of cufflinks

All cuff links are solid sterling silver, vermeil (24kt gold on sterling) or rose gold vermeil (rose gold on sterling silver)
Set three has a 14kt gold rope border.  All are manufactured by David Donahue New York.

Vermeil cufflinks make a wonderful choice because of their beautiful two tone effect once completed!
Cufflinks arrive in a David Donahue gift box along with the engravers personal card.

Step 2 of 4
Choose your monogram style (M1 - M8)

Monograms have a larger MIDDLE initial, but the middle initial is taken from the LAST name.
(Example: If your name was John Henry Doe, your monogram would appear as JDH)
Please remember, because the entire process is completed by hand, each letter is unique, and will vary
slightly in design and overall shape depending the letters provided.

Monogram Styles

New!  Celtic & Single Letter Monograms (M6, M7, M8)
We love the simplistic beauty of Celtic hand engraved monograms and it looks equally wonderful on circle or square cufflinks.

Having a single letter on your cufflinks (as opposed to three) increases the complexity and detail of each letter!
Because of the higher level of detail, these styles (m6 & m7) are ONLY available as single letters.

Step 3 of 4 (optional)
Would you like your cufflinks engraved with a special message or date on the reverse?

You can have one (or both) cufflinks engraved with a special message, date, or both.
Because of the small letter size, no font choice is available.
Round cufflinks will accommodate 28 characters (including spaces) on the back of each cufflink. (We wrap the words around the radius)
Square and oval cufflinks will accommodate a total of 28 characters (two lines of 14 characters)
