Lenox Golf Club Cufflinks

Lenox Golf Club cufflinks from 1897. (CL9465)

Lenox Golf


In the late 19th and early 20th centuries Lenox, Massachusetts, an idyllic village in the Berkshires, was one of the favored summer spots of the vacationing wealthy.  The beautiful woodland retreat offered a respite from the antic bustle of the seashore at Newport and the revelry of the casino and track at Saratoga Springs.

These elegant gold cufflinks celebrate an important moment at the Lenox Golf Club - perhaps a club championship or a redesign of the course.  One side is engraved "Golf" in flowing Victorian script while the other reads "Lenox 1897".  The cufflinks were created by an unknown maker from 14kt gold in the mid 1890s.

The care with which these cufflinks were crafted is evident on the reverses.  The backs are solid with smooth finish.  Note the sturdy cross bars and double-ribbed brackets that secure these cufflinks on the cuff.  The backs are marked "14K" for the purity of the gold.

Founded in 1864, The Lenox Club remains open today although the golf course was abandoned during the Great Depression and the fairways reverted to wooded forest. Today, croquet appears to be the lawn sport of choice.
