Ruby and Diamond Gold Square Cuff Links
Regular price
$3,750
These Hungarian gold square double cuff links, dating from the 1930s, are set with rubies and diamonds, joined by a clever swiveling element. Designed as stippled square links accented by a pair of diagonal engraved lines, one square link has both a ruby and a diamond set in opposite corners, while the other is set in one corner with a ruby alone. Sleek and charmingly asymmetrical, these weighty little links with rounded corners are rich and subtle ornaments for the cuff.
