Platinum and Onyx CufflinksOnyx and Platinum |
The captivating, understated elegance of
Carrington cufflinks ... here dark reflections of polished onyx
play beautifully against the cool brilliance of platinum borders
finely engraved with wavy lines. Created by Carrington
& Co. in 14kt gold and platinum, circa 1925.
The backs of the cufflinks are as beautifully crafted as the fronts. Note the sturdy brackets and strong cross bars which secure the cufflinks on the cuff and the smooth, high polish of the 14kt yellow gold backs. Carrington & Co. always carefully attended to small, often hidden details when designing and creating cufflinks, dress sets and other jewels.
The maker's mark of Carrington & Co. (a squared "C" enclosing "14") is stamped on the reverse of the cufflinks along with "GOLD&PLAT" for the purity of the precious metals, gold and platinum.
Carrington was a maker of fine cufflinks and elegant dress sets during the first half of the 20th century. The firm created gold and platinum jewels for Tiffany & Co. and other carriage-trade jewelers of the day. Name: Onyx and Platinum |
