Art Deco Carnelian Cufflinks

Moderne Carnelian!


Glowing ember-like carnelians set in white gold.  The cool brilliance of the gold contrasts elegantly with the warm sultry red of the carnelians .  A wonderful example of the starkly beautiful Art Moderne style of the late Art Deco period.  Created by Carter, Gough & Co. in 14kt gold,  circa 1930.

Vintage cufflinks should always be closely examined from every direction with special attention paid to the backs.  The backs reveal the care and craftsmanship with which a pair of cufflinks was created.  Here you can see Carter, Gough's uncompromising attention to detail in the mirror-like finish of the 14kt white gold,  the crispness of the edges,  and the sturdy brackets and strong cross bars that secure these links on the cuff.
