Cufflinks have a very long and riveting (no pun intended) history. While I won’t get entirely too deep into the chronicles of the cufflink, I will share with you their meaning and practical use in the days of old along with the adjustments that have been catered to contemporary men’s fashion.
Cufflinks date back to pre-historic times but did not become super popular until the middle of the Renaissance Era. Noblemen would wear ribbons to secure their cuffs as a symbol of elegance and high status.
It wasn’t until the late 17th century that they decided to use garnished jewels as buttons in place of ribbons. They were easier to use than tying ribbons and quickly became the more popular alternative. The term “sleeve buttons” was coined.Shopping is secure with Cuffed.com.au
