Elegant Amethyst Cufflinks Carter Amethysts |
| Elegant amethysts set in gold bean back
cufflinks. The antique gold has a slight ruddy blush that
plays beautifully against the regal purple hues of the
gemstones. Created by Carter, Howe & Co. in 14kt gold
circa 1900.
 These cufflinks are finely crafted and secured on the cuff with sturdy curved bridges and ample bean backs. The bean backs are hand-engraved in flowing Victorian script with the initials of the original owner, "F.C.S."
 The bridges are stamped with the maker's mark of Carter, Howe & Co. (an arrowhead enclosing a small "C"). Carter, Howe (later succeeded by Carter, Gough) was an esteemed maker of fine cufflinks, stickpins and other jewels during the Victorian era and early 20th century.
