Carrington Mother-of-Pearl CufflinksPlatinum and Pearl! |
During the first half of the last century Carrington & Company was a renowned maker of elegant cufflinks. These wonderful cufflinks feature etched mother of pearl tops surrounded by bright-cut platinum borders. Crafted in 14kt gold and platinum, circa 1930.
As with all fine jewels, you should examine cufflinks closely from every direction. The backs of these cufflinks are crafted in 14kt yellow gold and polished to a mirror-like finish (excuse the reflection of our camera). You can see the maker's attention to detail in the sturdy brackets and cross bars that secure the links. The backs are marked with the Carrington & Company maker's mark and "GOLD&PLAT" for the precious metals.
The maker's mark of Carrington & Company is a "C" surrounding "14". Carrington & Company was a maker of fine cufflinks, dress sets and lockets from 1900 to the 1940s. Carrington was based in Newark, New Jersey and supplied beautiful 14kt and 18kt gold cufflinks to many of the finest jewelers of the day. Name: Platinum and Pearl! |
