A very handsome pair of barbell cufflinks worked in 14K yellow gold. Each end of the barbell is fashioned as a full-blown chrysanthemum or zinnia blossom. The detailed workmanship is superb. Each petal is highlighted with grayish-black patination. This treatment lends an Aesthetic period effect and keeps the floral design from appearing feminine. The larger faces are collet-set with round brilliant diamonds of superb quality (estimated at I color, VVS1 clarity, and excellent cut and finish). The brightness of the diamonds contrasts nicely with the dark patination and gold. The solid connectors are slightly arched, so the cufflinks will hold the cuff snugly. The connectors are marked “14K” and have an unidentified maker’s mark. Origin: America, ca. 1960. Condition: excellent, all original. Size: larger faces, 3/4” diameter; smaller faces, 7/16” diameter. Weight: 18.6 grams. Approximate Total Diamond Weight: .3 carat. |
